How about you stop for a second.

'If somebody feels disrespected then you have disrespected them, even if you didn't mean to.'? That's a very skewed view on the subject. Disrespect is done with intent to do so. They already said they do not wear the white poppy with that intent, and that they wear red with the white. At this point, you are putting words in their mouth and reading what you wish to read from their choices rather then listening. Intent matters in this case, and you are placing intent to disrespect where there is none. Most rational people would step back and accept there was no intent to disrespect, cool their jets, and go from there.

Honoring the fallen is a personal thing for each individual, and while uniting, it can also be a way to remember those precious to you who have been hurt or lost because of war. Reading over this conversation, I'm inclined to think you both have a right to your opinions, and you both have good arguments. But putting intent where there is none is disappointing.

As someone who has lost loved ones to war both in her home country and abroad: please step away from the computer. You are reading into this intent where there is none.

in the long run, disrespect is what you make of it. invalidating someone's feelings because you didn't mean to offend them doesn't mean you weren't disrespecting them. not everybody thinks disrespect only occurs when intent is present. there is no set definition of disrespect, so subjectivity should be considered when you ultimately upset people with things you do or say, regardless of your intentions.

i do find it funny that you accused me of putting words in their mouth when 1) i haven't been and 2) they've been doing that precise thing to me.

you don't get to dictate how i spend my time just because you've experienced loss in war. many of us have, and many of us will risk being a part of that statistic ourselves. that doesn't give you any jurisdiction over what i do or say.
