I don't know if I would say men have it easy in that area, because I do tend to hear more Misandry comments getting made on Social Media for example, but obviously I do agree with you that Misogyny is still far more common.

And I agree with you that none of this is a competition.

Or it shouldn't be anyway.

Yep. So Zizu is well in the wrong for cutting in with defensive projection there. But unfortunately, if the problem’s always the opposite sex, people being cruel, tone or alleged misunderstanding, people never have to feel shame, guilt, growth-pain or realise that you can be accountable for being wrong while still being a decent human-being. And some people never learn that, no-matter how old.

Moderators, an imperfect system, co-workers and family protect them so that they never have to take responsibility for a single word they say, publicly or privately. I gave Zizu the option to take private accountability via PM over a different matter, something very dear to me that he tried to gaslight me over, very insensitively. He ignored me. That says it all. And it’s not something that should be enabled, with everyone but him being punished, any more than pointing out that women have unique struggles across the world on account of their gender should turn into a competition with people who happen to have a dick. So let’s just not make excuses for him. It only enables him to keep getting away with misogyny and more. He’s more than old enough to know better. And we should be able to point that out without risking a ban. It wouldn’t be tolerated at that repetitiveness from anyone-else. That’s my perpetual grievence with him and I say that without trying to be blatantly insulting this time. I’m just calling out patterns. I’m not the only person who’s noticed them, either. I just hope he changes one day.

You continue to spout utter hogwash …

As I recall the DMs you sent were disgustingly abusive and were passed onto moderators resulting in you getting a lengthy ban .

Just don’t interact or refer to me in any way

“Zizu, I’m not here to insult, bully or abuse you but since my point seemed to get lost in the rubble of animosity and me naturally being a longie when it comes to writing posts, I’m going to separately make something clear to you. What you did yesterday by trying to put my cultural experiences (assuming I’m purely, just white British and nothing more, despite the fact that I’ve alluded to being at-least a little mixed various times on here) was below the belt and for someone who’s supposed to come from a good place (like you always point out when you get stick), you bordered on racism and that’s below the belt. There was context in my post that obviously would’ve went over your head, because you don’t know me or the context (cultural and familial), but just know that you mocked and insulted a dead man’s legacy (a man very dear to me, whose loss I’ll have to live with for all-eternity) because you wanted to point-score with me and couldn’t be bothered reading. I’m disgusted in you but I won’t make this too long or say anything worthy of an infraction or ban. But know that I never thought you’d stoop so low, and it reflects very poorly on you that you’d be so wilfully ignorant out of a.) laziness and b.) trying to point-score with me, using that as your cue to overstep cultural boundaries.

Some people constantly defend you because they feel like you can’t cope with it-all and I get that you have your anxieties and issues but there is a level of wilful ignorance and intentionality that wipes out whatever sympathy I might (or might not have, still) have had for you. You do and justify it over and over and over again, despite it being pointed out to you by a range of different people, and it’s just not on. And I’m very disappointed, even in you. That’s all I’ve got to say to you today.”

I’m talking about this one. 19 November. And you know that. There it is in black and white.

Oh, and don’t tell me what to do. I’ll engage with your posts however I want. That’s part of what being on a forum entails. People quoting you who aren’t always going to like you or agree with you.

And that’s the PM. There in black and white. No abuse, no insults. Just a 68-year-old man refusing to take accountability for overstepping and cultural disrespect even privately. Some people will still defend you out of feeling sorry for you but I won’t. You’ve crossed too many lines and you need to own half of what you’ve said. You can’t blame your nerves forever or claim that every instance of being called out is an insult. We all like to be the good guy in our books and naturally defend ourselves but no-one gets it right all the time. We’re all capable of judging people through inappropriate lenses, overstepping and bla-bla-bla sometimes. But it would be nice to see you actually own it one day. I’m not here to goad you like my life depends on it every day but if you think intending to give you an easy ride means ignoring your many prejudiced posts for fear of being coded as the bully and you the victim, you’re mistaken.

A lesson in all-this is not to give toddlers Lucozade. Evidently, it messes up kids.

There are hidden meanings to Redway's posts about you, Zizu? I had no idea. That's opened up a whole new dimension to Redway's diatribes about you.

Definitely a pattern with some members. They get called out on their crap and they cry abuse and bully. It’s far easier than taking any accountability for their own posts. Crazy really.

Is that you Tonto …. Where is the Lone Ranger ??



See people like you and Redway are constantly sniping at me and get away with it because you don’t mention my name - its been going on for years and everyone can see it ..


To my mind it is still bullying but hey if you get off on that type of thing then I guess it’s really your problem..

I don’t snipe at you. You’re not important to me because of things you post.

Replying to you isn’t sniping. Isn’t abuse. Isn’t bullying. It’s you playing the victim card because things you post on here don’t fly. Very similar to other members on here.

My post wasn’t even about you. Another trait a few members on here have. Their need to be a victim is too strong.


I was highlighting similar behavioural traits.

Even when accountability’s staring at you in the face, it’s easier for you to ignore, deflect, call people obtuse for not agreeing with you, make out their reading-comprehension skills are at fault because they disagree with you and whip out the bullying/abuse card, all while ignoring specific points and instances people present to you. But then, actually naming accountability from your keyboard is the first step to actually taking some, I guess. I would hope.

Glenn has long-term beef with someone on here I consider a genuine friend and I’ve naturally never been a fan of that but between you and him it’s different. If anyone’s bullied or hounded you per-se between us, it’s me. Not him. He’s always calm and succinct when it comes to disagreeing with you, which in his case is genuinely all it is. He’s not ganging up on you or taking it any further than just challenging your posts, like he would with anyone-else he doesn’t agree with. I was hesitant to even ride with Glenn openly there because I didn’t want to look like I was taking sides but we’re well-beyond that now, and no-one’s directly insulted you in the past 24 hours. All your default-replies were pre-empted but you went ahead and made them anyway, only proving people’s point about you further.

Calling you to basic account for overstepping boundaries insensitively is abuse and a hidden, veiled attack on you? Is this not exactly what we’re talking about with you?

Even when you’re on the ignore-list, you’re here, there and everywhere these days. So it’s impossible to ignore you after a while. You’re everywhere now.

Yours clearly doesn’t, and you don’t even need an ignore-list for that. You ignore every basic call to accountability, even when it’s right in your face, and then cry victim and bullying later. Instead of rushing to your defense and blaming nerves and neurodivergence, maybe sit and reflect. Sit with what people are saying to you and actually let it sink.

You do all the things you do and then run off to your all-encompassing football-thread (which would be fine on its own) when the heat of owning your words and misogyny get too much for you. I don’t think you’re that lacking in self-awareness to not see how that creates a pattern of toxic masculinity, albeit wrapped under supposed neurodivergent vulnerability, which you think exempts you from the slightest criticism even when it’s genuinely not personal or a thinly-veiled attack on you.

Binge-drinking culture (especially strong in the U.K.). Ugh.
