Epic tangent.

I give the 7 out of 10 for technique and 6 out of 10 for the landing.

There is a thread which is mainly negative posts and a thread (this one) to finally celebrate the demolition and rebuild.

Say what you like, choose right thread. Simple.


How is this a "tangent" ? You made a post essentially demanding only responses you want to hear & i'm responding to "that", as its far far more interesting that the topic you have raised, that DEMANDS compliancy of thought.

Filtering opinions through channels which guarantee compliancy of thought is called "Creating Echo Chambers".

Its in spaces like this organisations/groups like Qanon & woke culture both grew to become the greatest divider of community we have witness in our lifetime. And people wonder why Trump wins. People are not voting for him - they are voting against "the way" left (and perceived) woke culture has CHANGED the way people communicate. Woke culture thought it was silencing haters - it never did. It just "armed" them in the same way America's interference in the middle east NEVER "liberated" people - it just made MORE terrorist. That is the total danger of becoming so arrogant that you don't even see what your doing...... "despite what you think, THIS is best for you - trust me, i'm a democrat"

When people in communities be it online or in life act like you do, you are essentially legitimising Trumps rants about "Woke culture" trying to take over. Everyone acts like Trump voters are dumb. They aren't - they are just royally jacked off.

Like it or not, when a forum - like this or Facebook etc -starts to moderate peoples "vibes" & opinions" - you are changing people's sense of freedom of speech. So when you have a canditate like Trump who is smart enough to weaponize that situation - YOU are helping covert people for HIM.

Surely we can just "raise topics" and welcome EVERYONE to discuss it openly? That is, afterall, the much fawned over "diversity" in motion, correct?

Yet here he is - winning the hardest job in the world, twice. And people still under-estimate him. It's outlandish.

Trump won more of the popular vote than Barrack Obama did either of the times he won, bot by just " a bit", but by 5 then 10 million. Outside of the very unusual 2020 election, Trump got more votes this time than anyone in history. He can actually, with all honesty, boast to be the most popular President in history now - the last 2 elections alone he has more votes than any President has ever received by miles.

Yet, people still want to put him down as some dumb "fluke". At what point do we, as people, start to really focus on "how" a "idiot" can become the most popular presidential candidate in history & "why"? To be clear, i am no fan of him - but, i have paid enough neutral attention by now to recognize the "why" & understand that the real idiots here are the democrats and their very loud voters, who are often "self appointed leaders / self important flogs" are literally doing all the hard work for him. Its THEM people are voting against.

Its why Trump spent the last week of the election doing nothing buy hokey, old timey political photo ops. Going into Macca-D's - riding dump trucks. The "Left" ridiculed him - while the Working Class voters sat back and said " glad you find it funny campaigner, thats actually my job". And guess what?

There are more of them than there are of "you". So if they vote for the idiot just to shut you up - thats on you.

On that - i will walk away from the convo before it totally derails the original purpose - but, the mods need to edit the OP to exclude the ( positive vibes only ), otherwise its a ****ing joke. If this is acceptable, then i will include the same conditions on everything i write ie ( only like minded replies accepted ). We can't be raising conversations here that demand compliancy - its a totally disgusting way for any forum to be ran. I have to implore BF to start changing that approach as every format needs to take a step back from over-moderating speech as until that happens, you are actually enabling this current "right swing" movement. These forums represent "community" for its members and when this, or any community, starts to denounce its members for not being "compliant", you are playing a HUGE part of the problem. You may say its a long bow - but its not. That is what a "cultural war" is - its not played out in parliament house, its played out in the streets and online communities etc
