Yup, not the place. Oh well.

Enjoy and be well, all.

And for holding that opinion, based on my experience here since joining, I got... dogpiled by abuse/harassment, toxicity, assumptions, and 'shittiness'.

The irony isn't lost on me. 🀣

I wasn't being "contrarian" merely to be so, pointlessly. Your post mentioned this being a (potentially) non-shitty corner of the internet people can exist & be themselves without abuse/harassment. I *merely* pointed out that has not been my experience & don't think the Net allows for such now. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Please do confirm my original point **even more**, cause ya sure seem to take it seriously.

You know nothing as well about my perspective on the newest films (and they're the opposite of what you're incorrectly assuming).

I didn't choose that allusion in my handle as "a joke" ---- At. ALL.

But good job with assuming incorrectly.

Nah, just enjoying the "non-shitty" experience of this lil corner of the internet -- right?!

You've validated my very point like 6 times time now, champ. πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ

I understand you obviously disagree with my QP'ed assertion. And yet, nearly immediately, others have entirely validated my point by how they're choosing to respond (to the experience here that I've had).

How does my experience impact **you**?!!? πŸ€”

I quoted the post because I **literally** quoted a portion of her post about this (potentially) being a 'corner of the internet where [people] can be themselves', presumably *without* abuse or harassment.

Ironic....

Annnnddd #4. It wasn't even difficult to have my original comment be almost instantly validated and supported by evidence of precisely what I described originally.

Case in point #2 πŸ‘†

It has *nothing to do* with the identity/orientation of the individual I QP'd -- but the examples underscoring the very point I was making are *suuuure* starting to roll in!!

Based on the responses *I've* received here over the previous approx 72hr, for blandly innocuous replies/comments, it certainly doesn't seem so (not here, at least).

It has >nothing< to do with you, of course, but it *has* absolutely been my experience...

"....one (1) non-shitty corner of the internet where we can be ourselves."

Yeeeeahhh, but I think that's *the* ("social" networking/platform) canard -- cause no such corner can/will exist.

This sure as shit ain't it or close... and *not* due to the reasons, in my case, that one might assume.

Jeezus....

Fuck thiz place and the pervasive shitty-attitude responses to someone who makes a simple comment (not even in disagreement!!)

I fucking HATE PEOPLE... and it worsens **daily** due to the unending vile rancor.

Whoa, whoa - I *never* claimed anything you've posted was incorrect or invalid, etc., nor was there snark in my comment.

PUT THE FUCKING ATTITUDE AWAY, MAYBE. 🀨

Good god....

No source to back the assertion (currently) but I would have believe organized/purposeful "psyops" go back *much* farther than the '40s - they've simply become more/better documented. A key distinction....

Staring realistically at the *immensely* high likelihood of >imminent< graduation to 'early stage' is... pretty akin to feeling the cold steel of a barrel pressed against one's temple.

Ask me how I know.

This is sagacious.

Also, following this guideline means that "my people" haven't apparently existed -- At. All. -- since, oohhh... probably 2011-2013ish.

No, that isn't in the least an exaggeration. One tends to notice such a thing.

If you believe *you* have things bad -- YOU >>DON'T<<.

It seems like a lot of the problems people are facing right now are being caused by the fact that a few people are insisting they personally should become not just filthy rich but offensively rich. Billionaires are a choice, and one we should all unmake.

More or less, yeah. There is no *requirement* to be on any social media/networking platform.

I've never been more mentally as well as when I deleted FB and not long after cut the cord on cable/TV. This is *no* different, ultimately (and in some aspects, even worse).

The last thing I'm gonna do is hop around over (?!!?, a number of) different platforms, hoping each will focus on *brutal*, yet immensely effective, moderation.

It's kinda clear now that it is not a desired result or priority for any of them. To borrow from Andor, there's only "One Way Out".

The only conclusion to be drawn from this being:

BSky believes they neither want/need such, even at a point where they are refusing an offer to do the work **for free**.

Let that sink in.

For me, this is an alarmingly valid reason to believe they aren't a *serious* platform.
