I'd hate to see you fade away. I know I haven't responded to your email to me about the new site but right now it IS so new that only a few of us are feeling it out, so to speak. You do have my email address though & I'd be happy to talk with you through that medium. Sometimes, I don't answer immediately though, depending on my mood & what I need to do.
For everyone to agree & be completely, utterly supportive to others is impossible. There's just too many different views & opinions that we hold. To support someone who posts something that one totally disagrees with, & not only that, but feels strongly is wrong, is impossible. So Bob would prefer we don't say anything. That's his decision.
But not to exaggerate the situation, what if no one spoke out about the wrongs that happened in Germany in the '30s & '40s? Just one example, admittedly a far cry from here. But people who agree all lovey-dovey with each other are either drugged into passiveness or indoctrinated. I'd prefer disagreements & a choice to discuss them too rather than a phoney utopia.
