It took six pages of people simply mocking me and immediately jumping to conclusions about what I had said.

Notice how stipe and I cleared that issue up in basically 5 messages. All of the other shit was just noise.

All I asked for was an outside source to read more about the terminology you all use. I didn’t ask for it as a “gotcha”. I was genuinely asking to read something official for where these terms come from.

Stipe was the only one who took the time to understand what I said. He disagreed with me. And gave me information and left it at that.

My only problem were the hoardes of people coming at me and I could not even keep up with who was who.

I’m not going to go down that road again. But man, I definitely see this tension both here and outside.

Find your group and hide in it

The moment I disagreed with a post, a swarm of accounts came to protect the hive mind. They were attacks. People ganging up in numbers to feel better about their closely held beliefs.

It becomes clear very quickly that the emphasis is not put on the information. But basically an initiation process where you have to bow down because you created an account after someone else.

The only reason I started out hot in that thread was because I immediately had a swarm of people enter the thread and give nothing of substance. The only comments being mindless denigrations. Nobody addressed the issue, only trying to gain numbers to make their cause feel more important.

And when I ask why….How dare you question us for information?!

Simply for having a different source of information, and interpreting it in a certain way caused people who were not even involved in the argument to enter in and dilute the subject.

I never claimed I would die on this hill. I asked for an outside source to read something. Should be simple, right? Because I looked online and had trouble to find it. But nothing was provided to me other than a big serving of condescending bullshit. If someone would have taken the time to enlighten me to the source of this information, I probably would have changed my mind and left it alone. But the discussion was derailed into a sideshow to the point I could not even have a sincere discussion.

But I definitely see a culture that he describes. If you do not bow down to the status quo, you will be attacked. Seems like a real liberal, enlightened place that supports experimentation and ideas.

I think it seems like a great place to be if you shut your mouth, know your place, and do as you’re told.

That’s just not me.
