This truly sums up the new left. I mean - in a fucking nutshell. Hear what you are saying. After you insulted everyone with childish name calling and pranks, you pushed out people who are decent and hard working to a place where they can discuss what are often very common-sense thoughts (not all, but many). They were willing to engage you on real discussion, even though they disagreed with you. They did not sink to your low (most, not all). You closed the thread. You changed words. You pushed people away. And then, when nearly everyone you disagree with is gone and you have an empty, soulless thread, you claim peace and insinuate that it must be the crazy people that left that has created this peace. This is not peace. This is silence. This is your bubble. This is what's wrong with politics today. But there were more of them than there are of you. It's called the silent majority. Shut them up when you are near, but they are not quiet.
You ignore the fact that this is ANDREW's forum. He repeatedly requested people stop posting alt-right propaganda, and memes, etc. he was ignored.
So, yeah, why not mess with links that he has repeatedly requested not be posted here in the first place? It's hillarious, IMO.
There is "disagreement" and their is blatant disrespecting the owner of the forum, the webspace, and the time and effort it takes to maintain it. That is what I see that was happening here in the past.
Have you even been to mrexiles? At least half the posts are nothing but commentary on THIS FORUm. In addition, a good portion of those are nothing more than insults directed at Andrew, and me. IMO, they should have to agree to post a public applogy on this forum to both me and Andrew before they are allowed back on this site. All they did was start a forum where it was "safe" to insult us.
The success of a forum is not measured by the number of posts, but by the quality of the content when there are posts, and the quality of the conversation that results. I would take one or two posts a month compared to the vile "we hate MR, and especially Andrew and Monker" and "we are devoted Trump zombies" that goes on in mrexiles any day.
Also, fuck you very much for saying any of those folks are racist. Find me a racist comment. Find me a racist person in there. I never saw any of that and I read most of the thread. Just because you call someone racist does not mean they are racist. It is your childish inability to listen and process what people who do not agree with you have to say. Trump isn't racist. The governor of Virginia isn't racist. And we aren't racist.
You obviously have not read the forum as closely as you claim. Yes, some, not all, of those people have posted racist comments....and I called them out on it one or two times. You are absolutely wrong in your above statements. In fact, I think you are blindly defending people.
In the end, you pushed people away, even if you hate those people I don't think it was right.
Why is it OK for them to ignore the direction of the owner of the forum? Why is it OK to blatantly do what they are told not to do? Why is it OK to go to another forum and insult the owner of this forum. Why should ANYBODY meet such a rebellious attitude with the passive response that you seem to want to demand?
at least you need to recognize what you did wrong.
It wasn't "wrong". IMO, Andrew should have taken decisive action sooner, giving people a vacation when they ignored his direction, closong the forum for a while when NOBODY was listening to him, and banning the mrexiles was justified because of their insults lobbed at him from that forum.
You see only one side of this story and it seems to me that you have not even considered the other.
