(55,007 posts)but I got sucked in on a different thread here today so I am having a look around - I don't normally hang out here but I have been watching all the crap from the meta perspective for months.
your advice and that of others may be well-intentioned but in case you haven't noticed, this group and many of its members are completely bound in a damned-if-you-damned-if-you-don't situation. The main contingent that has taken such a dislike to this group is NOT interested in SOLVING the mess, so any move this group makes will be met with MORE drama, more complaints, more criticism. They don't need advice or friendly suggestions to compromise their ideals. Mainly because it just won't solve the problem. But also because THEY are the ones being attacked.
I almost lost it when I read one of the nastiest asshole cheerleading dumbasses start whining for them to APOLOGIZE for crap that has been lied about so often it is now a GWBooshian truth. I don't think that person has written a single constructive post on this "war" since I started watching.
OK nevermind that, it is a personal gripe with me - back to my point - it does not matter what this group does because there is a small contingent of people on this website that have decided they don't like some of these women/DUers and they are not interested in healing, getting along, or even ignoring this group. They want them gone and they will never accept any actions or compromise. It is obvious by the comments and actions of some of those individuals. So why in the hell should this group keep trying to appease their abusers?
