What's with the juvenile comment that I've seen in today's Signs page? Viz:
"Comment: What the hell is the mustachioed shit-head Bolton talking about? There is nothing "slanderous" about saying that America was committing "big crimes" against Arab and Islamic countries...it a simple FACT!"
Anybody who hasn't been to the signs page and sees this kind of poor language usage will assume the rest can't be taken seriously. I understand that if they don't know better to assume, then they probably aren't seeing much anyway, but I fail to see how there is any advantage in using teen-age "shock" words in communications.
Also, it would be much more advantageous to helping people "stay the course" while trying to break out of the media lock down, if the comments supplied (like most of them do, but not all recently) have an actual purpose other than to call the subject(s) of the comment names.
People who are not fully realized, or trying to fully or more realized via whatever method (fusing a magnetic center, etc) don't need any more distractions that trigger an automatic response.
I submit this in full sincerity that the most people be reached: the work being done here is important. I'm not looking to get more people "in the gang", but only hope they can start seeing clearly what it is they are not seeing. Critical mass is needed, the 100th monkey phenomenon is apt.
As Epictetus (AD 53-135) once said:
"What concerns me is not the way things are, but rather the way people think things are".
Thanks for your consideration.
Edit: the forum software has translated the actual quote from s-h-i-t-h-e-a-d to shite-head. Go figure.
