You’re right. In fact, I suspect Jaimee wanting to watch “desperate housewives” was her asking to watch secret footage Woods recorded of his wife Elin Nordegren whenever she was distressed. Utterly depraved.
Edit: Joking aside, “the benefit of the doubt” implies there’s doubt, but you’re manufacturing the doubt. People in a normal, healthy headspace do not think this way about text messages.
Are you seriously just going to dodge these accusations of Woods recording his distraught wife for his mistress’ amusement? Is there something you’re not telling us about your own cruel voyeurism?
What? I’m not the one defending the guy here. I mused that giving a partner the silent treatment until they say the “correct” thing is unhealthy and you jumped down my throat to defend this cruel, drunk driving, cheating asshole.
No one is defending Tiger. They’re telling you your argument is flawed. Just because someone is a shitty person doesn’t give you blanket license to make every kind of strawman about them.
That’s terrible logic, and resorting to “Oh, so you’re defending him?!!” any time someone disagrees with you is no more valid.
I’ve noticed you use that as a cop-out a lot whenever someone calls out your flawed arguments.
There’s “reading the situation differently” and there’s “blatantly fallacious logic being used to justify a moral pedestal.”
After all the grandstanding you do while casting shame on anyone who disagrees with you, you don’t get to backtrack by saying “Oh, we’re just reading the situation differently.” No, there’s such thing as “You’re just wrong.”
Being able to admit when you’ve been wrong is a strength, not a weakness. It’s okay to let go of your feelings of moral supremacy, they’re not serving you.
The people of Lemmy would like to believe they have an open mind but when you get down to it, they’re as open minded and progressive as any group of people online. You will get dog-piled here for “wrong-think” just as vehemently as you would on mainstream social media.
This shit was posted because its two shitty celebrities who’s texts we can humorously read into. That you have reacted so makes me think you have some level of personal investment in not seeing that tiger woods is being shitty in these texts.
Thanks. Yeah I’ve gathered as much which is why I don’t let it bother me.
I’ve been on the Internet long enough, probably longer than most of these guys who have a grudge against me, so I’m not surprised by the group think or that it would turn against a vocal woman easily.
No one has a grudge against you, you just have a habit of making disingenuous arguments and then resorting to pedestal standing when people push back.
You can’t just hide behind “I’m a woman, so you can’t disagree with me!” That clearly doesn’t work whenever a woman disagrees with you, as we’ve already seen before.
Just because you’re wrong about something doesn’t mean everyone disagreeing with you is having “group think.” And it’s not sexist to disagree with you when you make a bad argument.

Do you think Tiger Woods has normal, healthy relationships?

For what it’s worth, when I read into these texts I come away with them both being pretty much shitty.
That was my read as well.
I guess people are allowing their annoyance at me to justify defending shitty people like Tiger fucking Woods.
But Lemmy doesn’t have a sexism problem lol
So we can make up anything we want about Tiger Woods, and no one can disagree because then they would be defending a cheater?
This whole thread is textbook Ad Hominem
You’re describing Velma’s entire post history.
He’s an asshole in these texts. We’re just reading the situation differently.

Personally, I’d say it’s more so the cheating that makes him an asshole rather than how he texts.

Fallacious arguments aren’t “wrong-think,” and waiting an hour before responding to a text isn’t “silent treatment.”
Sometimes, a person is just wrong, and you don’t get to arbitrarily call people sexist just to defend a wrong position.
Nobody here is defending Tiger’s behavior, they’re just saying waiting an hour between texts isn’t silent treatment.
Critique him on any number of shitty behaviors, but not responding within an hour isn’t one.

Appreciate you chiming in!
