This week on PFA

Lots of racist and homophobic crap because Priscilla Wadsworth and Michael Tonello believe in allowing any and all comments, no matter how offensive or verging on hate speech.

Lots of nasty comments about pretty well everyone on PF. Jealous much?

Priscilla will continue to bray about the evil on PF, conveniently neglecting to mention that she apparently was (much) less than a stellar seller on Ebay herself - but, oh, riiiiiiight ... she's exempt from criticism. Though using PFA/TonelloLogic, this must mean ALL of Ebay is evil and full of scammers because that's what she tried to do to her buyer. Nice that she's following in the footsepts of her mentor, Michael, "no longer a registered member" Tonello. We're sure it's only a matter of time before she starts selling scarves with rips and stains and decides that equals mint condition. If the mint was chocolate covered.

Lots of whining about PF in general by people who appear to have been banned. Why they keep going back is a mystery to us.

Next week?

More of the same.

Blah, blah, (insert epithets here), we hate (insert name of poster or brand name here), those people are (add yet more epithets).

Because PFA believes it's their role to add more hatred to the world. Newsflash, P: dissent doesn't mean disseminating hatred. That doesn't change the world. It just contaminates it.

Racists unite at Priscilla Wadsworth + Michael Tonello's PFA

Since we wrote the last post, it's become clear that you can spew any kind of racist hatred over at PFA. In the past few days, Priscilla Wadsworth has repeatedly stated she sees nothing wrong with the anti-Semitic (and pretty much anti any group you can name) comments she allows to be posted on PFA. So bring it on! She'll publish anything! Well, maybe not anything. As someone commented here, the only comments she won't allow are those that are critical of her, Michael Tonello or Donna Lehtonen. But if you have something racist to say, the welcome mat is out at The Purse Forum Advisory.

So hey ... open season on anyone over at PFA. The blog's co-owner, Priscilla Wadsworth, says so. It reminds of us of that Shakespearean line ... full of sound and fury, signifying nothing. That's because they have nothing valid or worthwhile to say. And any reasonable comments or voices are drowned out in a cacaphony of hatred, ignorance and racism.

Priscilla comes from a relatively small town in Alabama but we're pretty sure that if she talked to any black or Jewish or Asian or homosexual neighbours, they might beg to differ with what she thinks is perfectly acceptable beliefs and language.

In any place, no matter how big or small, it's just wrong. It has nothing to do with "allowing people to speak their minds" or "preferring not to overmoderate comments - let people say what they like!" and everything to do with a stunning lack of awareness and flat out bigotry. And none of the illogical comments Priscilla has made defending the indefensible can get around that.

Priscilla Wadsworth and Michael Tonello's PFA - now your source for anti-semitism, too

We shouldn't be surprised that Priscilla and Michael published a comment that is a slur against Jews. After all, PFA has already repeatedly made nasty comments against Asians and homosexuals, and in its comments section allows people to be called every name going. Because that's just the high level, classy kind of discourse going on over there.

The comment was made Nov. 18 at 4:25 pm and in fact, Priscilla Wadsworth posted right after, so she both approved and knew of the comment.

It's disgusting. And anyone participating and overlooking those comments should be ashamed of themselves. But obviously, shame isn't in their repertoire of emotions.

Why all the hate, Donna, Michael and Priscilla?

It might be funny if it wasn't so pathetic. Trolling a place you say you don't like to be nasty and hateful ... day after day after day. And the PFA comments are getting worse and worse. Also funny how the ranters over at PFA are so ticked off because they say disagreement is not allowed at PF. Really? Just try to post a dissenting opinion on PFA and see how far that gets you before you are called something unprintable or someone with waaay too much time on their hands digs up your personal information and posts it and encourages people to harass you. Priscilla Wadsworth and Michael Tonello seem to have no issues with printing any of it.

Day after day, adding more lies and hate to the world. Hey, what an achievement!

Most people, encountering something they don't like, walk away from it. You just seem to wallow in it and feel that somehow, it's an accomplishment.

It's easy to whine about things and people you don't like - it happens every day at PFA. It's a lot harder to make a positive change in the world. Maybe try that for a change.
