Attacked by a rebuttal in defense of Wal-Mart

So I posted something the other day bashing Wal-Mart. Some people agreed with me, some didn’t. Actually, MOST did, one didn’t. Not that I’m keeping track. And then there was a response, in the form of a post on a different blog, in which the writer was so blatantly obviously referring to my post (while, oddly enough, taking part of it out of context- go figure), and then apparently doesn’t allow comments on their site, so I couldn’t defend myself. Therefore, allow me to do that here. And since that blogger made a half-hearted attempt at “protecting my anonymity” (although it was quite obvious as to whom they were referring), I shall do the same. If people figure out who said other blogger is, that ain’t my fault. There are intelligent readers out there, even those that read my ramblings.

“Bashing Walmart is fashionable these days … and I supposes it’s amusing to make fun of people and make yourself feel superior in the process. You know what? I’m sick of hearing it.”

Tough titties. Nobody forced you to read the post, yet you did anyway. Secondly, let’s get something straight- I never once proclaimed myself superior to anyone in that post. If you want to infer that, then that’s on you. And don’t sit there and make yourself superior to me by trying to imply that you don’t make fun of and never have made fun of people. It’s human nature. Sometimes it happens without the fun-maker-of-er even realizing they’re making fun of someone. It’s not necessarily proper, or “politically corrupt correct”, but it is human nature. Comedians and actors make millions making fun of other people. Including themselves. And if you were a regular reader, you’d know that I am quite self-defamatory here. I’m not trying to justify it in the least, but even so, drop the “how dare you make fun of people” shtick and lighten up.
