Where in my post did I show any antipathy towards you?
Your post was actually one of the better (and, yes-- mostly lighthearted) posts so far from those FReepers who believe that politics and film appreciation are unacceptable (a view I have never shared).

I was simply telling you that this thread is designed for people who actually care about this ceremony, and it is a waste of both of our times (and bandwidth at that) to bog it down with a lot of negativity and partisan sniping.

If I have misunderstood you before and you want to enjoy the Globes as well as I and the other posters on this thread, then I am sorry. But I take these awards shows seriously, and I can't abide without comment killjoy attacks on the ceremonies.

Listen, we've been making fun of Hollywoodites on these awards threads for far longer than you've been on FR.

I just wish you'd take your antipathy towards Hollywood elsewhere tonight

The above are your words. When you told me (who has said nothing indicating any antipathy toward Hollywood in general) to take it elsewhere, that did indicate a hostile attitude.

I don't appreciate you telling me what this thread is designed for.

I have made many posts that indicate I am enjoying the show so yes, you most certainly did jump on the wrong person.

You also said you don't understand how people can be offended by the political stand of some entertainers. Well, some people are and it doesn't mean they're defective and it's not up to you to correct them.
