But if the choice not to read it is exercised, the intent is irrelevant, since it is not read!
If there is a poster on here with whom I don't agree, and have no wish to engage, I simply ignore their posts.
If I choose to engage, then I must accept what they say and how they say it. If the effect on me is negative, and I still keep reading and responding, then the fault is mine for putting myself in that position.

Mozz - // Let's hope no-one you care about has to deal with online bullying, abuse or harassment. "Why did you read it", will not be a help to them. //
That's probably why I wouldn't say it.
I am stating my views on this thread, on the basis that participants are going to be regular (adult) AB'ers - and if anyone genuinely wants to debate the subject of cyber bullying, by all means start a thread - I'll see you there.

jim - // Exactly what other inference is there to draw from "the fault is mine for putting myself in the position [to read negative stuff]" than that the fault is anybody else's for reading negative stuff about them? //
I don't do 'inferences' - I speak from my own perspective, as I did here, unless I am speaking in a general sense, in which case I will advise accordingly.
If you want to take two and two and make twenty-two from something I have written, I can't stop you, but obviously I am not going to continue to argue with you while you do so.
