charity at work...

it is ALWAYS there.
but should blocking decisions be made because people choose to take things personally?
we don't take politics personally in australasia.
seems you guys do.
so we have to change our behaviour.
guess you could call it falling into line with the majority (seeing as the majority of posters to politics are from america)...
on the other hand...
ever wonder why that might be the case?
would be interesting to see a breakdown of blockings (from politics) from country of residence.
would be interesting to see how many blockings people get on politics vs on the other boards.
personally...
i think people would do better to learn not to take criticism of ideology / ideal / politicians / political parties personally.
repeat after me: i am not my political parties legislation: i am so much more than that. and if people are opposed to the legislation that does not mean they are opposed to me.
sigh.
here isn't the place, eh.
