got your attention? good.
well, this is probably the last thing you'd be expecting from me, and i have to admit that it's surprising me a little too. so, without further ado...
shut up.
both sides, shut up and take a f***ing breath.
to my friends on the left, you're letting yourselves get bent out of shape over rodney? rodney? please. and mimi and whatever this new westy is? that's like haranguing a piece of s*** because it's brown and stinks. i know they're vile and all that, but please, are they worth it?
to the those of you who i like on the right (and it's disturbingly few) after all this time did you think that the people who fought tooth and nail against the possibility of gw getting re-elected were just going to go away? duh, this election was monumental and while i disagree that the results will be as detrimental to both the country and so many of its people (especially a specific minority who hold a majority status here) as they believe, to just act like it's business as usual is callous and stupid. grow up.
to those a**holes who've come out of the woodwork to spew hatred, so you've been getting beat up on for a while because of your views. so what. deal with it. you've chosen to place yourself in an online community where for possibly the only times in your lives you are in fact the minority. this is what it feels like to see no one around you who shares your views. not a lot of fun, huh? you've chosen to be here. you made a choice to make yourself a minority. that's more than a f*** of a lot of the people upon whom you're spewing your bile have done. if you can't see how important this election was to so many people then you're too stupid to breathe. if you do see it and continue to squeal like little piggies at every single post that comes up which validates the sentiment that's been on display here for months, then you're beneath contempt. i like that phrase, beneath contempt.
people are scared. they have some justification for that fear, i will certainly allow. i don't think things will come to pass in the apocalyptic manner in which some of them prophecy. but if you can't see that or refuse to make allowances for that fear or worse deliberately prey upon that fear...what kind of person are you?
deal with the fact that there's anger and fear and that we, we, have to work through that to prove that the fear is while not unfounded, at least doesn't have the support necessary to achieve the goals attributed to it. we have to work together. people don't trust each other and so there has to be ways to find little bridges but it's not gonna happen the day after the election, or the week after the election or the month after the election. it's gonna be slow but it has to happen. we have to find ways to work together again, or we'll allow the idea of america to vanish.
now i've taken more s*** on this board than most any of you and for decidedly longer than most any of you who are among the wild eyed new conservatives. i was here before there was a f***ing off-topic board. i'll be here long after most of you useless attention whores have left. and i have a message for you:
quit trying to f*** up my board.
take a breath, folks. seriously.
