Me Too

I can't judge what Edgar's intent was. But taking him at his word, his utopian goal for this thread wasn't realistic.

The view here seems that you can use vulgar name-calling to get people you don't approve of to disappear.

Participants in Peru's Miss Universe Pageant broke with tradition and recited statistics detailing violence against women rather than give their body measurements.
The organisers also joined in showing news material of prominent cases of gender-based attacks.
The 23 aspiring beauty queens were hoping to get through to November's Miss Universe Competition in Las Vegas.
Last year thousands of women marched in Peru against gender-based violence.
Instead of giving their bust, waist and hip size, the contestants took turns reciting a roll call of shocking data.
One contestant said a girl dies every 10 minutes due to sexual exploitation in Peru.
Another said more than 70% of women in the country are victims of street harassment.
The televised show shocked viewers who were expecting traditional light entertainment.
The contest organiser, Jessica Newton, told the AFP news agency: "Unfortunately there are many women who do not know, and think they are isolated cases.
"I think that the fact that you are looking at your regional representative, at the queen of your department, giving open and real figures about what is happening in our country is alarming."
She said out of the 150 participants in Peru who had begun the contest, five had been victims of violence, including rape.
At the end of the evening the pageant contestants were asked what they would do about violence, instead of lightweight questions about hobbies and ambitions.
The winner of the Peru pageant, Romina Lozano, representing Callao department, said her plan would be "to implement a database containing the name of each aggressor, not only for femicide but for every kind of violence against women. In this way we can protect ourselves",
The contestants are planning to lead a march to highlight violence against women in Lima in November.
According to the Observatory of Citizen Security of the Organisation of American States, Peru ranks as second only to Bolivia with the worst record of violence against women in South America.
The Peruvian government says 800 women have been murdered in gender-related violence in the six years leading up to 2015.
Peru's Congress passed a law in September 2015 providing comprehensive measures to prevent and punish violence against women and set up shelters and temporary refuges for women.
Gender-based violence has been a hot issue in Peru.
Last year tens of thousands of women demonstrated in Lima and other cities calling on the authorities to do more to stop it.

An arrest warrant has been issued in the US for the actress Rose McGowan for possession of a controlled substance.
It follows an investigation into belongings left on a United Airlines flight from LA to Washington Dulles airport in January.
The belongings reportedly belonged to McGowan and had traces of a controlled substance.
Washington police obtained the warrant on 1 February, spokesman Rob Yingling said.
The authorities say they have been trying to contact McGowan so she can appear in court in Virginia.
McGowan, 44, is among the most prominent accusers of Harvey Weinstein, the Hollywood mogul facing multiple allegations of sexual assault and harassment.
Writing on Twitter on Monday, Ms McGowan hit out at the arrest warrant, asking "Are they trying to silence me?"

Defence Secretary Sir Michael Fallon has resigned, saying his behaviour may have "fallen short" of the standards expected by the UK military.
He told the BBC that what had been "acceptable 15, 10 years ago is clearly not acceptable now".
He is the first politician to quit following recently revealed claims of serious sexual abuse in Parliament.
The BBC understands fresh claims about his behaviour were raised on Wednesday, but Downing Street refused to comment.
Political editor Laura Kuenssberg said that sources close to him do not believe he is "some kind of predator", but that he had not felt that he could guarantee that he would be able to account for every encounter in his long ministerial career.
Theresa May said she appreciated the "serious manner" in which Sir Michael had considered his Cabinet role.
She also praised the "particular example you wish to set servicemen and women and others".
