    Yep. It's tough. As you say giving each other a hard time had long been the accepted culture. Frequently it is fine and even part of the fun.

    Ideally posters would eventually see when it wasn't fun or acceptable.

    Meaningful discussions might be few and far between. But they aren't non-existent. I like them when they occur. I also laugh at the flippant remarks, sarcasm, and jokes (sometimes).

    I can't remember exactly but I think some people thought it was @baylorbear09 or @CGroveStapleton - I cannot find the original post that started it, but someone dug up some photos of a boy holding two puppies as the person behind the "I am a proud black woman" posts.

    Edit: @LondonCalling found it.

    Don't care, just responded to your post to give the non cult members some relevant info.

    Not entirely true.

    ATW also has mentioned he's seen my photos and referred to my appearance, as well as posting where I currently live on here (before deleting it). Why would he do that? It doesn't feel like innocent motivations. At the very least, it seems like an effort to cause distress in others. I was able to screenshot it before he deleted it though just in case I need to show evidence down the line.

    At the end of the day I will say this. Why is it politics have to get so ****ing personal? I have no issue with people for disagreeing with me. I have friends who are anti vaxxers, relatives who love Trump, and people dear to me who think Islam are evil. Yet we don't go after each other the way people do on here.

    The very idea we need to check out people's linkedin profiles and see where they live, and gleefully mention it to let them know that they have this information - well judge for yourself. But at the very least, I just think the vitriol doesn't need to be there.

    Just because we disagree doesn't mean we have to attack one another personally.

    It's anonymity. If people here had these discussions in a group circle in a physical building everyone would be significantly more cordial and respectful. A lot more active listening also.

    Not sure why you are bringing up Hitler or Charles Manson seems kind of weird to me but we are all entitled to opinions and stating whatever comes to mind I suppose … As far as Trump no I don’t really support him regardless of what you or the other ignorant people think but I do prefer him over the disaster that is Biden with the many disasters we’ve had from him -… I absolutely prefer Desantis way over Trump like way over like you never believe over but at the same time if it’s the choice between Biden I’m voting for anyone else

    I cannot remember the appearance thing - I do remember referring to which state you live in, but I think you mentioned that on here several times yourself.

    There was no sinister motivation behind it, other than, I guess some type of unnecessary one-upmanship. In any case, it wasn't right, I rightly got warned for it, and regardless of what I think about your weird persona change here and your posts, what I did was wrong, and if I have never done it before, I will apologize to you for it now. One thing you can be absolutely sure of is that I would never post your identity or photo or anything like it. I obviously wouldn't like it being done to me, and I never did nor would I ever do that to another poster. That really should go without saying.

    I will also take you off ignore for now. Not sure how long that will last though lol.

    Also ATW I believe did it to @MacBeth as well, IIRC.

    The point still stands, don't do things like that and expect to not have it happen to you.

    I personally don't have any issue with it, but I respect it if you do.

    This whole thing started because I thought ATW posted Deb's pic, he did not, doesn't mean my point is lost as he has in the past basically DOXXED or doxxed light....people here - and is now whining about the potential of it happening to him.

    THINK before you act....please.

    No, you do not remember correctly. I found some posts from what appeared to be the same poster on RealGM. I have no idea who the actual person was.

    Stop lying through your teeth.

    You have no point. You embarrassed yourself by thinking tagging someone under a meme photo someone else posted means "posting their picture", then made threats of doxing here which clearly are illegal and out of bounds, and I trust @Clutch will deal with them when he gets to it.
