(1,823 posts)Ive only read about half the thread KB, and this seems about as good as any post for a reply. I like this one - it makes cogent points, it argues passionately, and *some* of us can clearly hear what you are putting out. I get your frustration and can feel your drive to find a way to get along and move forward, together. You've got a lot of passion, and I'm sure you look around at the world with as much political and emotional despair as any.
Just wanted to say, a LOT of us feel the same way, and hear you loud and clear. Agree fully.
Many of the peeps you're dancing with in this thread though... you are wasting energy. They do not want to hear you. They do not want your ideas, dont care about your passion, and feed on your frustration. They would sooner hammer you into the ground and walk over you than give you the time of day, much less accept your foolish notion that you're a part of the party as well.
Thats what you are debating with - hammers, intent on nothing else than crushing your spirit and shutting down your mind. They don't want you to do more. They don't want you to "get out into the real world." They dont want your energy or your thoughts, your passion or your allegiance. They want to twist your words, ignore what they *know* you are saying and create distracting, ensnaring webs of semantics and intentional misinterpretation. They want to wear you out and make you go away. They want you hammered down.
Ignore them buddy. Go forth and do you and fight for your beliefs. The bag of hammers wasting your time here are just a trap, just a diversion, just a pitfall to slow you down. They are a tiny handful of people who will never hear you, who raise their voices as loud as they can here because it makes them feel like a majority.
They aren't.
Anway, I like this post, and many of the others you've made in this thread. Time is on your side, and the world (and the party) will change if people like yourself just stay involved, fight hard, and dont get don't be discouraged by those whose only intent is just that.
