minus-squareDashi@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·5 months agoWhat was said wasn’t an insult. “Your momma…” are jokes, “you suck do bad…” are insults. Tbagging a dead body is an insult. Implying you are going to rape someone and then saying it’s not rape because you would enjoy it isn’t a typical “insult”. So yeah i read what they said. It just didn’t really apply to the situation.

minus-squareCTDummy@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·5 months agoNo it is not. “I’m going to kick you” isn’t an insult, it’s a threat. Someone could try to make the case that it’s a “joke” but it isn’t an insult.
