I did NOT nor would I ever say you are despicable 😮

The point you seem to be missing is that a COMMENT can be described as despicable based on its content and is not dependent on who says it  nor where it is said.

That same comment can of course have a far greater impact if it is splashed all over the front page of newspaper or uttered by a Minister of State rather than by an anonymous individual during a discussion on the topic.
