I told flint last night to defend his fuckin' self in the thread, but he said he was at a BBQ.

Priorities.

Now let's see what happens when I post the thread to his wall instead of to his messages.

[Flint]

It was an awesome BBQ.

In retrospect I can see that using full names was not the best choice. My apologies for this, I really hadn’t considered whether this would be a problem. Moderators, please remove all full names.

However, I don’t apologize for anything else from the original post. To repeat, in brief: I enjoy reading alternate viewpoints on social media, and welcome a healthy, spirited discussion. I believe that any ‘blocking’ or ‘deleting’ of opposing viewpoints indicates a lack of respect for the free exchange of ideas, and reinforces the ideological confirmation bias which is creating a falsely polarized representation of the American political climate. I personally find this distasteful, to a degree which necessitates strong language. I’m not sorry for this, and I’d do it again.

fine by me on removing the names, and again, I did NOT delete or block anything or anyone. If anything the person that made the comment to which you commented on may have deleted it. I do not know. All I do know is I did not delete anything, Feel free to leave me the hell alone, your views will not change mine. ever.

Someone on my youngest niece's friend list posted a really nasty, reactionary, downright racist, anti-immigration poster on their timeline, my niece reposted it with comment, except the comment didn't go in, for some reason, and instead she accidentally, randomly posted a racist poster on her own timeline ;p

Names removed

[DanaC]

To protect the cunty?




* sorry - I have no actual opinion on the cuntiness, or lack thereof of the protagonists in this little bacefuck dramedy - I just thought it was funny.

It was an awesome BBQ.

Was there brisket?

[monster]

Did you hear the adult joke about the BBQ?

It was a little Briské

I'll get my coat

The rest is about politics and people's beautiful lives and children made of solid gold. Phony pernetified. I made that word up. I should go post it on Bacefook.

Immediately thought of this:

I unfriended Flint. He'll still have to come here, if he wants to complain at me, and about me, at the same time.

~ because people love it when you do that to them ~

as for the rest of it

one day i realized that nobody asked for my opinion in the first place

so now, i try to not give an opinion unless asked in earnest

and i try not to give opinions about things I am not informed about

it is VERY hard. and self-editing is ruinous.

I try to keep the word 'should' out of my mouth.

I try not to do that but in this case I just might do that as well. I don't mind what he did, I mind the way he did it. That was pretty fucked up in my book.
