    No, no, you don’t get it. It’s not about being nice, it’s about telegraphing what a good, nonthreatening supplicant you are

      I already said he was an asshole and cited the reason, that’s not supplication.

      You don’t have to celebrate death to prove you aren’t a supplicant. 😉

        You wrote the words “basic humanity” as if that was supposed to make sense as a justification for a rule. Don’t think we’ve seen a reason.

        It might help you understand WHY you’re getting ratioed if you understand this:

        Lindsay Graham was basically a serial killer who used votes rather than knives.

        Imagine a serial killer murdered someone you love. Wouldn’t you cheer when you find out he’s died? Wouldn’t you be happy he is dead and no longer able to harm others the way he harmed your loved one?

        That’s how we feel about Graham dying. That’s what we’re celebrating. Graham is the serial killer who murdered our mama, and we’re happy to see him die.
