That comment somehow manages to be more divisive than the Palestinian conflict. A truly remarkable sequence of specious assertions that is guaranteed to piss off vast swathes of the population. Almost brings a tear to my eye

As a far left anarchist that loves Lord of the Rings I was very specifically offended

Did people forget what divisive means? I would say it's exactly the opposite of divisive, it's a comment that is produced as much singular unified reaction as you could possibly get.

I meant what I said. Most people disagree with the comment, but probably for a wide variety of reasons. It's not a singular reaction, it's multiple reactions to multiple insinuations that all happen to be questionable.

Yeah and I meant what I said that you don't get what divisive actually means.
