GAW,
I think you missed my point, as did ZD in his response.
Of course there will be people who are guilty of L”H in every community. And, of course, people will tend to say L”H about things which bother them. If someone, for example (based on the discussion in this thread) wears jeans, it won’t be a topic of L”H in a M.O. community, although it might in a right wing community (wrongly so).
Something else might make waves and cause L”H in a M.O. community (I remember, for example when a right wing rov in a M.O. community refused to allow hatikvah to be sung at his shul’s dinner, there was a lot of L”H said about him).
What ZD was saying, in essence, was that since he doesn’t agree with the hashkafos upon which the L”H being said in a RW community is based, the RW community is by definition not a Torah community.
That is the biased, hateful statement to which I objected.
