the flying monkey gig...

you might want to look up the psychological definition of that behavior

*********************************************

Wait. What?!

Since I only know ‘flying monkeys’ as a Wizard of Oz reference, I did an internet search...

OMG(osh).

Some folks are just gettin’ plain in-your-face ugly, IMO.

Please, let’s agree to end this back-and-forth over a daggum request to move a certain topic/source to festival.

Respectfully,

((aint’t no hugs for this tripe))

Not sure if I want to do that search...

Since a little group on the threa wants to take over and destroy it, what can be done? Just ignoring them at this point is waving the white flag.

Is what it is.
...evident in the piling on.
Gee, I wonder who orchestrates the piling on.
...hmmmmmm...who could it be...who who...I wonder who, indeed.

All because I called out censorship and the thin skins got bruised. If you can’t debate differing thoughts, there’s a problem.

Again, my issue is censorship, not any particular source. The only two...ONLY...reasons to try shut out differing thoughts in this context is because it is a either a threat to these very threads as participation declines, or because the information might divert to an unintended and uncontrollable narrative.

I’m picking up the rudeness you’re personally putting down and there’s a psychological term for that game too! ::shrug::
No hug necessary =o)
My LGD and loved ones give me hugs regularly in real life and they’re not some anonymous poster on an internet forum, acquiescing to groupthink.
