I doubt that anyone dislikes Juliann's online behavior more than I do. However, when I clicked on that meme thing and saw the disgusting, vile, obscene things being written about her, I certainly disliked THAT behavior more than any behavior of Juliann's.

And, lest I be accused of being a hypocrite by being silent, I had no idea what was going on there until others protested.

We hate to seem like we don’t trust every nut with a story, but there’s evidence we can point to, and dance while shouting taunting phrases.

delete the ones that are defamation per se, look on wikipedia to learn what defamation per se is.

as for the rest, there is no need to delete them. Of late they seem quite humorous.

By deleting them altogether the terrorist win, yes terrorist, people who use terror, threats, intimidation to silence other free and protect speech.

nemesis, and many of the other LDS are hardly examples of decency in matters of discussion.

I voted "None of the above" because she seems like a fairly nice person in general so I don't think I'd say that I dislike her. I of course dislike some of her behavior. I think it's wrong to post pictures and names of people without their permission, and awful to also post obscene and insulting things about them.

edit: I thought a few of the captions were pretty funny, such as: "I logged in as Nemesis just to say leave me... er, I mean Juliann, alone!"

Stuck in the middle again.

My answer to the OP....a definite no. The juvenile behavior should stop.

I agree. It's all a little childish. The recent shutdown of MDB was due to childishness and this Juliann meme thing is just as childish. Give it a break.

Some of us have already been there and done what we can to drown out the crap by making our own memes.

But if you don't want to bother with that, why not show how you feel by voting in this poll?


I do not think it is OK.

Disagreement should be expressed in a respectful way. This meme generator nonsense seems a bit adolescent to me.

PS -- this is not to say I have never engaged in disrespectful online behavior. Quite the contrary. I have simply found that such behavior is never productive and most often leaves to hurt feelings. As Latter-day Saints, Christians, Agnostics, or Atheists, I think the quality of our dialogue can, and should be elevated to respectful discourse, rather than simple rhetorical jabs.
