Here’s round two (GTT, pg 44).
Mods – can you read my previous posts here. Should we start a separate thread for this?
*It is forbidden to speak lashon hara (derogatory information) in the presence of the subject, even if your sole intention in mentioning his faults is to criticize him constructively. Besides transgressing the aveirah of lashon hara, you may also be guilty of causing him humiliation and mortification.
So, how does ths play out when we respond to other people’s posts. Do we speak in a derogatory manner about the speaker or about the content of the post?
