I see how this goes now. Toe the line and never, ever mention anything about discontent because, if you ignore it, it’ll surely go away. I’m sure that’s how it works. And a very thin line to walk too. Never take into consideration the feelings of the vast majority - in this little country, the minority rules. Express yourself and it’s “off with your head.” Have anyone agree with you and it’s off with their heads too. Popular opinion means nada! Get all the ducks in a row so they can follow the leader. Spiraling downward, faster and faster until you are standing on the edge of the abyss, looking down into a gaping black hole. Hey, where’d everyone go? The land of freedom lies just beyond the horizon. A place where thoughts and ideas are welcome and you are free to speak your mind. Big Brother does not exist. No one is peering over your shoulder ready to tape your mouth should you voice your own opinion.
What's the point here? We all know the score. Unless you're deliberately trying to incite other posters to come along and join your harangue and get themselves suspended in the process.
There is nothing productive to be gained by continuing this combative discourse. There have been changes which we believe will better the site. You don't like the changes. Thanks, we got it.
