Or, yall could stop taking these none entities so serious as to let them get under your skin? Let's remember that all opinions have a right here. And some issues by their nature are going to be controversial. Some just cant handle the heat od the discussion forums. They never could. They should thusly, stay out. It's not like you will meet the person any time soon. Or that they will come to your house to impact your life in some real way. I have only placed a hand full of people on igg over the decades. And then, only temporarily. It's a lot easier to slice and dice their faulty logic. Or just not respond to stupidity. But some of you have skin made of fine china. Moreover, you have allowed your personal issues, phobias, psychosis, idiocincracies (sp ) to infect your logic. CHILL. It's not that important. And neither are your faux hurt feelings

Kemetstry, I tried to engage dude--everyone knows that I'm referring to CosmicMessenger, so...)--I tried to engage dude in regards to how he was applying hateful religious rhetoric towards Black women in any and all kinds of threads. I tried. Fella ran! Ran straight to a pat declaration of his belief in his FATHER!
Thing is, the OP had *nothing* to do with religion. Not a thing! He brought that perspective into the thread, so I figured why not engage him in regards to *his interpretation* of TRUTH (from an historical perspective).
If I was to understand him to
not be a *troll*, then yeah, dude had/has a right to share his positions here, same as me and anybody else. Still does. I even ain't in his (or anyone else's way) when they feel the need to run for protection, too. When he did this (ran) from what I had to say, I recognized that and immediately disengaged from dialoguing with him.
Push/shove, if dialoguing with me left him feeling uncomfortable or more, somehow *at risk*, I had no right to do that kind of thing to him (or to anyone else), so...
But his obvious persistence (his approach) in engaging in dialogue
with all other members that he attracts into dialogue--and him not being a troll? Well, I'd do my best to skirt past his auto-diatribes against Black women, and I thought I was doing OK with that (no more than annoyed with him and his posts). Been doing this kind of thing for years, here--occasionally having to shine something on. No biggie.
He tore his drawers with me, though, when he attacked Cherry--it was the 'way' he went about it--that attack. He escalated his rhetoric by specifically targeting a Black woman--a fellow member--and he targeted a fellow Christian member! Isn't that inexcusable? But anyhow...
My issue with him: Dude is all over the place (in terms of current topics). I realized that my own personal feelings of anathema for his mindless posted positions was starting to build up towards the level of his own personal anathema for Black women. Like I posted earlier, I got tired of his rhetoric.
Since he's laced himself (his auto-diatribes) all through the current topics, this didn't leave me with much that I could safely check into without *finding* CosmicMessenger already there, doing his thing!
Enough! But how to avoid dude? SMH, I really was thinking to not support the site! As if that was all I could do to register my own displeasure with
my Destee experience*. Trust, I saw it as my own personal issue.
I didn't once think to register a complaint against CosmicMessenger. He IS a member. Has as many rights to be a member as any of us have, so...and, I NEVER think to use that dang IGNORE feature!
Not until houserunner's post about it. Duh, right? LOL!
One Love, and PEACE
