No.  It is pointing out that under the norms of usenet, there is no "victim"
involved.

There is no special significance in the fact that the word "jew" was used,
or that the recipient was a woman.  As I and others have pointed out,
everyone who expresses strong views in this forum should be prepared to take
the heat, just as in any *public* forum.
