I confronted you because I thought it was disgusting how you treated that individual. Like a punching bag. All while anyone who fully agreed you put on a pedestal. That individual didn't even challenge you or your post. You straight up shot them down because you disagreed. I don't think you're a bad guy. But you do try way too hard to make yourself look good.
Kenny muted me after I confronted him awhile back. Someone downvoted him. He approached that individual talking about how the downvote was unjust and pointed out the massive number of comments there, acting like he'd done something special, but in reality it was my response that generated a metric shit ton of engagement, not his post. Just like you see here, and in your post from the other day. I create a bit of buzz. He then made a video boasting about how his post that day had "way more comments than anyone else on Hive" acting like he'd done something special. I simply called him out on his BS, because it was total bullshit. His response was a full denial full of arrogance, ignorance, and immaturity. I was treated like a number. A number he felt proud of. Some of the comments were just me shooting the shit with others, like you see here and in your post from the other day that have nothing to do with the subject matter. I just called him out on it all and he didn't like that. Once he muted me and removed me from the equation, the post he was boasting about, making a big scene and using as a reason why that downvote was unjust... it only had two comments. So without saying anything, my point was then fully proven and I walked away, left him alone. Then I saw him being sarcastic, you can see his comment in the screenshot I left below. He'll mock those who downvote, mute, and can't handle being questioned. Then in the post act like he's a proponent of truth. So I have reason to believe he's full of shit. And me being honest isn't putting anyone down like you accuse me of doing. Some in this group, yourself included, have put me down and treated me like crap on several occasions. Doesn't bother me. But I can sit here knowing for a fact there's some bullshit going on here. There's some people posing as pure greatness. I can say that because I know it's true, whether they like it or not.
I have a low tolerance for bullshit. I pointed that out right off the bat in our conversation today. I had suggested you refrain from spin as well and ridiculous rebuttals. I bet you'd deny those exist even though they're right in front of me.
I was dragged into this whole scene. I already explained that to you the other day in your post. Some in this group want to talk shit about me. Well here I am.
To clarify, a lot of people in 'this group' are just people who post on similar topics who receive upvotes from the same people and who want to help each other out. It might seem like there's some kind of oragnised team effort going on, but there is minimal organisation and most Discord chat is light and unorganised. Many people here never speak to each other afaik outside of the comments you yourself have probably read.
I would have to see the thread to comment on it. I do vaguely remember it and I remember that I was feeling very stressed for a variety of reasons. Iirc, the person in question had made several comments and you only saw one of them - the gist of them was to dismiss what I was saying out of hand without providing any evidence or reasoning. That may not be exactly what happened, but that's the signature of what I recall at present without having my memory nudged more. Your limited capacity for bullshit is probably similar to mine - though I can also be extremely patient if I feel like it too. At that time I had been submerged in a swamp of people buying corporate lies, hook line and sinker and was frustrated that people's lazy thinking was possibly even going to lead to civil war. We made it through somehow, but many cities are fighting globally and this isn't over yet.
This is one of the most high stress times I have ever experienced and I am energetically more activated than a lot of people because of my awareness of the unconscious patterns involved. Someone might stumble into my post on a coffee break, not realising that I am aligned more to run a highly charged information ops room than to make small talk. Anyway, I'm sure if I saw the post and thread I would make more useful comments here.
Thanks. 'Good' is subjective, but in my mind I take what you have said to mean 'squeeky clean' or 'honest'. Part of the reason for that is that I am so used to people using ad hominem attacks and derailing what is being said in unhelpful ways to try to discredit something they want silenced. I just do my best to minimise the possibility of that, in order to try to focus on my goals of disseminating logic and information that can help improve life.
As far as Kenny goes, I'm not seeing any screengrabs in the comments here, but it's clear that he is understandably upset and wanting to be heard/felt/understood. People are quick to judge and fabricate claims about the people that they are saying are themselves fabricating things.. That is the pattern I see being pointed out by most people here on both 'sides'. Perhaps we are highlighting a common thread in humans that affects many people that we all need to look at in order to avoid conflict and come to peace. This is actually the nature of a great deal of healing that I have done over the years - what we usually hate the most in others is something that we do ourselves too, but are in denial of.
I'd really like to see you folks tackle your issues without the smear campaign and throwing folks under the bus. I'm bored with the platform politics. You found that out the other day. I disagree with the rift being created and enforced. I don't agree with how downvotes are used in some cases either. The things I say I say confidently because the chain is there to back me up. I represent myself and only myself. Act on my own.
And yes when I say 'this group' I'm using the term loosely and don't want to single anyone out. I guess attempting to describe how 'this group' acts towards me is a waste of time, but I know my personal experience well. If I push that any further 'this group' will only want to defend itself in order to protect the image they'd prefer. 'This group' can run a seemingly never ending smear campaign, but 'this group' will not tolerate much, if any, criticism. 'This group' assumes anyone who's not for it, is against it. No middle ground to enjoy.
I'll stop bugging you folks now and probably just leave the platform entirely for awhile. Again, the only reason I'm here is because some bullshit led me here to 'this group', and I'm sick of this bullshit. But I don't want to get into the details and lay it all out for everyone. I just know what I know.
Toodles.
Well, thanks for sharing your perspective, all voices have something to offer - even if others are tired of hearing the message or adamantly oppose the voice. It may be that, as objectively as we can be, it is the case that a specific voice is espousing dangerous ideas that very definitely will lead to objectively terrible outcomes for everyone that adopts them - but that doesn't mean that we shouldn't hear them. At the same time, everyone who speaks publicly can expect to draw a reflection from others and from this they can always learn.
I agree that that would be a great ideal for all groups and all people. Sometimes people have had experiences and even traumas that lead them to feel that they don't have personal space to be able to interact with someone else without being defensively/ offensively triggered and so they lose balance. It takes courage and intent to be free enough to think openly and also to challenge our own (often deeply engrained) thinking in order to feel safe/free enough to always stay away from offensive behaviour. Ultimately, it is everyone's responsibility to notice where they may be acting out their own issues on other people in ways that aren't optimal for all involved.
I've been around this block, forever. All this talking will lead to nothing. Fact.
This is a decentralized media platform. Not the Covid forum. Not the Truther forum. Not the alternative media forum. Not the (insert favorite political nonsense party name here) forum.
IF any group's information is being suppressed, and I don't just mean on the platform, I mean globally... Any group is now free to simply ACT, build their platform upon Hive, and carry on. I see that's in the works. So just go DO IT. Chiseling away at the very foundation is only shooting yourselves in the foot. We have years of trial and error to fall back on. Shouldn't be too hard to get it right. Why waste time yapping about it and playing politics? And oddly enough some of those folks you feel don't stand for freedom or didn't make the cut helped provide the some of the infrastructure required to enjoy the freedom you want, with no intention of ever taking it away, and still building upon it.
I have trouble believing some of you folks in 'this group'. Consistently able to put on a big show, talk a big game, FOR YEARS! Anytime something goes wrong it's a big hissy fit. Forever saying the solution is on the horizon yet it never comes. Stop fucking around and just do it already.
Fair enough, we are!
Good!
I'll believe it when I see it.
