Yet, if he'd called Yoko Ono a nobody, you'd applaud him and say that
anyone
who called him a moron and fool was "engaging in personal attacks"
and trying to "censor" him.

was also annoyed.   :-) <

< As far as your last point ("anyone who called him a moron and fool
was engaging in personal attacks and trying to censor him") there is a
difference between disagreeing with someone's opinion and trying to
censor someone. >

Yet you never see the distinction when someone criticizes you. Are

personal attack?
