Personal attacks are getting really vicious against me the more I speak out.

36. I think we just need to be careful and be too the point in what we post...

I got a post hidden for the first time since I was on DU just the other day.

It was asking why the debates were being held up, and I posted a picture I'd found on the internet of Debbie Wasserman Schultz and called her a DINO and said she was probably trying out for a part in the next sequel of Jurassic Park. That by itself probably would have been OK, but I wanted a picture of her as well lo make a statement. I googled her and found a pic of her with a picture right next of her of Jar Jar photoshopped on her face. I wasn't really intended to put that image as a comment on her physical appearance, but to make the DINO connection more definitive, as Jar Jar had the appearance of a "dino"... Probably would have been better off looking for another pic with the text "DINO" next to her instead. Anyway it got hidden because people thought I was being mean spirited and making a comment on her appearance being like Jar Jar, which wasn't really my intent (even if it might have been the intent of the person doing the original photoshop). I just told myself I need to be careful and not let other meanings that I might not even be intending be conveyed in a post that are more personal in nature and not to the point of a political issue or the like with the "alert stalking" environment we're in.
