Bashing the bashing bashers!!
Can someone please define for me exactly what these terms mean???
"Bashing" or to be a "basher"
It seems that folks believe if you disagree with them and present even a semblence of a good reason, all of the sudden you are considered to be bashing.
It occurrs on both sides of the isle.
I am curious what exactly does that mean?

bashing can be telling someone the truth that they do not want to hear!

Bashing is when you hit the person instead of their ideas.

Bashing is a harsh, gratuitous, predjudicial attack on a person, group or subject. Literally, bashing is a term meaning to hit or, colloquially, to assault but when it is used as a suffix, or in conjunction with a noun indicating the subject being attacked, it is normally used to imply a sense of uncompromising vehemence and bigotry about the assailant.
The term applies to two different types of attack: physical assault and verbal or critical assault. In the latter case, bashing is used metaphorically to indicate an attack on a subject that is of similar aggressiveness and motivation to the physical case.
