I'm starting a new clique...wanna join me? |
|
We can get together and get some marking that identifies us as part of this clique, and snub our noses at anyone who doesn't have that mark. Sound cool?
Let's start a board on another site too so we can organize our attacks on anyone who disagrees with us! Who's with me!
Let's call ourselves the Sneeches :)

13. That's the point of some of the groups. A safe haven if you will. |
|
The Kerry group doesn't get Kerry bashers, etc. etc.
The Women's Rights forum doesn't get misogynists.
The GLBT groups doesn't attract homophobes.
The whole purpose of the topic forums and groups is so that people who are affected or interested in that particular topic can discuss it with like minded individuals.
You won't find any meat eaters in the Vegan group, for example. Maybe lurking, but not outright posting.

44. You won't find some vegetarians there either. |
|
That's my issue with the DU groups; what good is it surrounding yourself with people who think and post exactly like you and forcibly shutting out those that don't? Trolling is one thing, dissent in the community is entirely another animal. Unfortunately, some severely polarized DU groups can't seem to tell the difference between the two and end up creating an echo chamber, rather than an exchange of ideas.
Just my 2¢. Take it for what it's worth, everyone else does. ;-)

Of course, I'm not only talking about that group. I used it as an example of a larger issue, not to specifically single it out. ;-)

Mr. Midlo is back at work full time, which has been a struggle for him, which in turn makes me crazy, but other than that, everyone is healthy and happy.
Great to see you!!!

That means a lot coming from you.
And, you know what? I'm so proud of this community for pulling for the GLBT community like they have recently. I think a lot of folks have had their eyes opened to the discrimination and are really, really trying to make a difference.
I am full of hope.
:hug: to you and the beautiful Prophetess.
