ORIGINAL: ThatDizzyChick Neither do you, actually, however, be that as it may, the wearer's intent is not relevant. It doesn't matter if the wearer's intent was to start a riot, it doesn't justify being an asshole to him/her. I mean what's next, getting hassled for wearing a Chumbawumba t-shirt? So if you weren't talking about intent, what did you even mean by VALID provocation versus just a provocation? I thought you were trying to suggest that he didn't actually intend to provoke anyone, but it seems now that you don't care that he was being provocative and are mostly just focused on what you feel is the correct way to deal with people who provoke you. I've already said several time that I'm not defending the reaction to the provocation, which is exactly what you accused me of, simply because I think that this type of reaction must have been expected. And is Chumbawumba in a position where there have been protests, outrage, fear and anger over the fact that they have been given power over the lives of hundreds of millions of people? Have they talked about banning Muslims or deporting millions? Have they sexually assaulted anyone? Do they have the support of white nationalist movements like the KKK and American Nazi Party? I have already said that the context of the message matters.
