If the administration of this site didn’t support, and vicariously enjoy HG’s treatment of those he’s after with the fervor of that slobbering backwoods “Deliverance” character, they would remove a little bit more than just some of his penis insults, don’t ya think?

I’d be surprised to learn there are people here who enjoy anyone’s bad treatment of a poster. Most posters treat him like a ghost.

When I was in my 20’s, I learned that the opposite of love isn’t hate because they’re both intense emotions that make a person want to interact with the one evoking the strong emotion. The opposite of love is indifference. Only when you’re indifferent can you truly be free of a person.

That is why they are indifferent to the attacks waged against us.

So that they can be free of us.

That sounds so warm, fuzzy, thoughtful and Hegelian.

Now do “good and evil aren’t opposites”.
Hegel could.
Did you know that Karl Marx was a scholastic child of Hegel?

nicely put. I use “apathy” as the opposite, but indifference will do.

the opposite of love is fear.

Indifference makes one a subject of evil, oblivious of the harm in abdication, resultng in pain and suffering. It is the lack of caring for one’s own rights.

If the Admin is so indifferent to Dumbledore then why do they rush to defend him when gets a taste of his own keyword medicine?

Are they also indifferent to the loss of money and members he causes?
