I follow and agree with what you say here. But why not just delete the
posters that you personally dont want to read? I see the names, its
easy. How nice it would be if in church we could hit the delete
button! I could delete 'self' and attain enlightenment! My point
was that a whole group shouldn't run away from one poster they dont
like. It would happen again and again....then where do you draw the
line? Intolerant cancel culture is like a dark wave sweeping the world.

So what if Cyndiann called me a troll and stupid for not getting the

Evidence which is compelling and powerful information to others

experts like Peter McCullough and Robert Malone. The vaccination
coup is on the verge of coming undone. We will witness the
resulting political turmoil
How does it change your mental outlook if you knew (thought

cause the whole group to abandon ship? Ask what is the real value
of increased moderation and restriction?

Hallo Max,
Yes, in answer to your question. Something would happen to the
8-year-old, and to its parents, to get it to change its unacceptable,
challenging behaviour,
If we were in church or the supermarket, a classroom or at home in
the dining-room for instance and the disagreeable 8-year created
havoc, there would be an overwhelming consensus call for some sort of
control of the situation. If the parents could not control the child
then sanctions by the group would be applied. The parents and their
child would not be welcome, not allowed in there until "it learns
some manners", would be banished until things improved. Parental and
peer pressure would be applied. If the parents could not teach the
child, could not reach the child, could not get through to the child,
then we would perhaps be advising and looking at something drastic
which needed to be done. Some sort of institutionalisation, or
sedation or medication. Some form of appropriate sanctioning or
corrective behaviour.
If there is no corrective intervention those systems will collapse;
for instance the church congregation will disappear because no one
can put up with a brat continuously and people would rather not go to
church. etc etc. _Or_ the congregation learns to cope with a
screaming, farting kid. The congregation is encouraged to put up with
it and to listen to the sermon and sing the hymns and psalms, despite.
The *real value of the **moderation and restriction* is that that
_precious space_ can then continue to be used as it should, as a holy
space or a quiet, or an educational, or a sociable, or a creative,
productive place. _On the other hand_; playgrounds, backyards, open
fields, the beach are suitable, appropriate, approved places for
letting go, running around and making a noise, like seagulls in a
feeding frenzy.
OK, Tony
Hallo Max,
You are trying to give me a work-around that should not have to be.
You are missing a major point which if adhered to would make this CS
List a safe, desirable place. That is that in the CS List Rules there
are to be**_*no list-cops* besides the Owner_. LindiLee knows this
because she says she has been a member for a long time. She always acts
as if this is her list, that we must do as she says. That attempt at
domination does not sit well with me. To me that is intolerable; also
seemingly to the 1000 or so members who have already left, gone, lost.
I have been reading and there are plenty ways and means to run a good list.
OK, Tony
