Apparently a lot of people here don't even acknowledge there is such a thing as STS/STO, despite it being discussed extensively by Ra.

Agreed. That's why I put a ? regarding Scott's labeling of Clinton. Not even Hitler could be conclusively determined to be STS harvestable. We cannot know for sure, the polarity of another entity.

Monica, you do this repeatedly.
There is a huge difference between labeling a person STS vs labeling an action STS. Even then, actions alone cannot be judged STS or STO, because intentions matter and can alter the polarizing potential of the action. This is why I have used qualifiers like 'inherently' and 'knowingly.'

I had no such expectations. I merely found it ironic.

Then you have a different definition of 'disrespectful and rude.' I consider something 'disrespectful and rude' if it's directed at someone personally. It's not disrespectful or rude to express one's own opinions about ideas and concepts.

But Ashim! Eating apples is clearly an STS act!!!

Serious? You ask someone who has written enough to make a book on a particular topic whether they've 'thought about it'? That was serious?

I have never, ever, EVER labeled any person STS. Nor have I ever called anyone any names, as others have done, nor any direct insults, as you just did with your 'sorry arse' insult you just threw at me.
I'm feeling some deja vu, and it's not from past lives. It's from seeing this repeat of drama. Folks, this is NOT about ME or any other vegetarian. It's not about you either. It's about the victims!
Does anyone eat apples? That is an STS action.
