"A side issue but I don't get duke1776s point. Surely these attitudes are the children of Political Correctness, an insidious doctrine that I thought originated in US Universities".

That is now "olde skool".

Now, they're starting them off in preschool, kindergarten, and elementary school, then continuing on thru middle and high school, so they'll be thoroughly indoctrinated correctly by the time they get to college, if they go that far. Of course, the lessons only continue in college, in order to ensure the correct views and compliance by the masses there, before they are released into "the real world".

@Stoppage

You're a genius. That's what the world needs more than anything right now. A multiplayer online Junta game.

Brilliant.

Well, changes that were made in TMP regarding advertisers/ companies and what hoi polloi could post about products didn't really make the TMP experience any better…

Actually, I doubt most of our readers noticed any difference.

It's those companies that want "free advertising" that are a sink on the hobby. Why shouldn't they pay to support a site they want their products mentioned on?

That is probably true …

There are things people can do when attacked like this:

I did a quick search on the interweb for the 8 Stages of SJW attacks that you were sent and I found this 'SJWs Always Lie: Taking Down the Thought Police' by Vox Day.

1. Rely on the Three Rs: RECOGNIZE it is happening. REMAIN calm. REALIZE no one cares.

The first thing to do when attacked by SJWs is to recognize that you are under SJW attack, remain calm, and realize that no one else cares. You need to understand that the attack is happening, accept that is happening, and refrain from the temptation to try to make it not be happening. Do not panic! Don't go running to others for help or sympathy, don't try to convince everyone around you how outrageous or unfair the accusation is, and don't explain to anyone how little you deserve the way you are being treated. They don't care. They really don't. Think about how little you cared when someone else was previously being attacked by SJWs and how little you did to support them, let alone take action to stop the attack. That's exactly how much your colleagues and acquaintances care about you being attacked, and exactly how much they are going to do to stop it.

The truth is that it doesn't matter why SJWs are attacking you. The only thing that matters is understanding that you are under attack right now and no one else is going to do anything about it.

Yes, it's a long post, but there is more on the link and it is important to know how to fight such attacks – especially as they are becoming extremely common. (Why? Because people do not know what to do; therefore they often work.

Learn how not to be a victim to an organized attack.)

@wmeyers

I'm surprised at your reaction to commercial protests (What you call SJWs); they might actually put Facebook out of business. I thought you were livid at Facebook at not allowing certain conspiracy posts around Covid-19?

Asteroid X01 Jul 2020 1:27 p.m. PST

Minipigs, it's the kind of posts like the one you posted above that TFL are using as ammunition against this site.

The bullying and belittling and attempted character assassination.

That is the exact behaviour they are complaining about.

Au pas de Charge01 Jul 2020 6:17 p.m. PST

Wait. I thought one of the few things we were in total agreement on is that Facebook must be destroyed?

Personal logo Editor in Chief Bill The Editor of TMP Fezian01 Jul 2020 8:32 p.m. PST

That is the exact behaviour they are complaining about.

And the negative reviews, don't forget that. Can't discuss "Worst WWII Ruleset" because it causes divisiveness…

Glenn Harvey02 Jul 2020 3:58 a.m. PST

So much for the last word on the subject, can't help but continued sniping on a site he is banned from defending himself. Not that anybody cares anymore…
