You don't have to defend Byte all the time.

And what if I want to? You guys are doing exactly what Sockpuppet said, pretending to be conciliatory, while saying, "Don't worry about fucking up." Well, she didn't fuck up. At all. And if I think so, I'm going to say so.

So to Byte, yes I think you shouldn't take things so personally. It isn't all about you.

Well, then I take back my apology to you.

CTS, you're only saying that because you're one of the few people I haven't lashed out at, which at this point pretty much includes only you and Frem. The reason everyone is all saying one thing is because they're right.

Hey Byte -

uhhmmmm ... out of curiosity, do you consider that 'everyone' aside from CTS and Frem are blaming/ criticizing you? Your post is puzzling to me. Once again, I find myself baffled. If you would explain, I'd appreciate it.

I too concur with the sockpuppet's last post. (god this could get confusing)

this place is filled with venomous vermin.

kiki, Maybe it's restricted so that other sockpuppets cannot see it. ;p

IIRC it was placed in a spoiler bracket somewhere.

byte,

No, that's not why, it's because everyone here is clinically insane. That includes the people i think of as good people, which i have a short list of half a dozen i know well and another half dozen i think are reasonably cool further out. But what the evil people don't realize is that they don't know they're evil, because they don't know what social evil is.

Social evil is the negativity and the hating of everything and everyone. It's the need, the psychological *need*, to place self as counterpoint to what has just been said, to place oneself in debate in absolute opposition to any opinions or thoughts that are not their own out of a deep seeded internal insecurity requiring them to force their own will over that which does not already conform to it in order to place themselves back into the mental security of ruling all which they see.

If you were to say "I like firefly" to a socially adept audience, they might respond with "Yes, Joss Whedon is the best" or "it's not my favorite of his works, why do you prefer it?" often followed by "okay, I hadn't looked at it from that angle, but I can see why you as an avid libertarian would get excited about it. I might look at it differently next time I see it."

We all know this is how people communicate in normal life when we are out and about, and I know that you have some reasonably popular and cool friends and so you also know this to be more or less an accurate portrayal.

Here's how the socially evil might respond to "I life Firefly."

1) No you don't. You only think you do. You just can't see it's right/left wing propaganda
2) Firefly is violent show, of course you would like something depraved like that, you sicko
3) I hate firefly. It's a show about stupid people watched by stupider people
etc.

Or any variation that might be more tame than that, like "firefly is a violent show"

And then if someone said that, the socially adept might respond with "yes, it can be, but it's about a revolution, and I think the violence serves a purpose to illustrate the conflict; but I can see where it could be disturbing, especially when it comes to reavers."

but if someone said "firefly is a violent show" to a socially evil person, they might respond with. "No it's not." Or "you're only saying that because you've never truly seen it" or "you're too weak to stomach firefly then maybe mommy should tuck you in tighter at night"

Anyway. FFF:RWED is a community of socially evil people, and i mean that in the best possible way, but it's true. Even the best of us, which I can hopefully say without too much trouble are Mike and Rap, are still constantly contradicting each other and trying to get the upper hand on the conversation. The least socially evil person is probably Anthony among rweders, and on fff is likely chrisisall, of all who sometimes post on rwed. But the core of this forum is pretty solidly sunk into this downward spiral of negativity.

And you can watch this point proven as they respond to this post

No, it means I remember HURTING all the people I've lashed out at, as I already said. I haven't lashed out at Frem or CTS, which is why they're defending me. They aren't speaking from the same experience you others are - if they had experienced that, they wouldn't be defending me and they'd know why you are all saying what you are.

No, I saw you "lash out" at other people. I'm not blind even if it isn't directed at me. You were understandably frustrated because they were not only ganging up on you, but were attacking with ad hominems and strawmen. You were somewhat more emotional than what is normal for you, true, but not enough to have anything to apologize for.

It pisses me off because I see them ganging up on you again, telling you how much you lashed out, as it were, when you didn't lash out any more than they did. Like you were the only one who threw any stones in a crowd of stone throwers. Fuck their patronizing bullshit, Byte. You did nothing wrong.

I'll defend you to my last breath, cause all I see is a pack of hyenas who are ripping up the one of the few people left on this board with any intellectual integrity and social decency. Emotional predators is what they are.

That thread was not the only place. I'm telling you I remember hurting people. The proper response to that is to go, welp, this person hurts people, and I don't want to get burned by them.

I don't believe that. I hope you're just exaggerating.
