I have disagreed with you on a handful of topics and had my own viewpoint on situations that we were both a part of, but LYING about you? HELL NO!!
Your OPINION is just that, your OPINION of situations, ideas, etc. That opinion doesn't become a FACT just because you believe it!
I think that I know what situation that you are referring to and there were NO LIES. I expressed my viewpoint of what transpired and you disagreed with my evaluation of our private discussion. Because it was private, you should have NEVER made it public without asking me if I was okay with that. Also, you have inside knowledge of what was in your mind at the time, that I can't possibly know, so my evaluation of it was from MY POV.
On top of violating my trust, how DARE you call me a LIAR for expressing my opinion of what transpired, after you posted my PRIVATE CONCERNS on a public board and then starting an argument over it. If I'd wanted to discuss the situation publicly, I would have. Instead, you violated my trust in you to keep our conversations PRIVATE when they are done in private just as I've always kept yours!
For months now, you've demanded something impossible to give to you (a DNR against greenman and anyone who might be annoyed with you) by posting in the Back Alley) which would defeat the ENTIRE PURPOSE of its existence. So, instead of handling it THERE, where you are free to express your dismay in whatever terms you please, NOW you've brought it HERE, where it DOESN'T BELONG. You introduced it here under the guise of only caring about fairness in women's swimming as well as the bullying the speaker suffered.
That is very rude. Your topic, alone, is a GREAT ONE. I happen to agree with you 100% on how wrong the extremist students and their faculty are about transgender women competing with Cis women.
However, linking it to a few months old argument that no one else is still arguing is not fair and totally wrong. The Back Alley exists to hash out crap THERE to keep it OFF of here. You KNOW that so WHY did you bring it up HERE?
I told you back then that the discussion was supposed to be private and that I would hear you out via email, but you didn't take me up on it.
Look, I'm sorry that you are upset and feel angry that I can't/won't give you a DNR on a board that, by its very nature, doesn't HAVE DNRs. I told you the solution was to STOP READING THERE and it would all blow over while you remained blissfully ignorant of what greenman thought of how you run R&E and how you (mis)treat him in HIS POV.
You can now expect greenman to have his say about you labeling him as an extremist bully. I know that he's attacked you in the Alley, but that is what it is there for, to keep it OFF of the main board and even off of yours as the case may be. But labeling him an extremist? No. Fact is he ALSO agree with your position on the bullying of the woman on campus who disagrees with allowing a biologically male trans-woman to compete against cis women. So the term extremist actually DOESN'T fit greenman.
I'm done with this for now. I have a LOT on my plate right now, including a sick 5 year old granddaughter who needs my attention far more than this. I responded now only because you emailed me to tell me that you'd posted this. I'm also spitting mad about it, so I don't want to spew off things I can't take back when I calm down.
