The stuff he is tweeting from the official Gab twitter is truly hellishly insane !

"As per my policy of not communicating with non-Christian and/or communist journos, I will not be replying to this non-story. "

Just for context, the situation being referenced here is that Gab claims Donald Trump is verified on the platform but the address associated with the account is really the CEO's email (Kuhcoon was his YC company).

Maybe I'm missing some context, but what about that Tweet was disgusting versus just trashy or in poor taste? Compared to some of the crap on Twitter it's pretty tame.

The word disgusting literally means to be in extremely poor taste (e.g. "the rotton food i ate was disgusting")

FWIW, regardless of the origins, “poor taste” always seemed to be a more minor condemnation than that when I have witnessed it — things from Frankie Boyle’s standup or Trump’s interior design preferences to the UK Queen announcing austerity while wearing (and sitting on) the royal bling; never

Sure. Hence the "extreme" modifier.

No, disgusting is not "bad taste" it's "revulsion". Much stronger.

If I showed someone a crime scene photo they might be "disgusted" but they won't say it's "bad taste".

Opinions may differ, but I think refusing to take a journalist seriously because of their religion is pretty disgusting, and goes past mere "bad taste".
