Progressive cult member says "racism is in the air we breath, it's in the water we drink" . Perfect example of how a "movement" is used to take dismantle a country.

Well, nothing in any thread I initiate is off topic. So, unless the moderators are bored and want to punk your post - it stays. Get it together, Atlanticmike. Don't let the glare off the roof distract you. Be safe and have fun.

ALSO: A good way to guage the rightness or wrongness of one’s actions is to project out what the world would look like if everyone on earth did exactly what you’re doing.

In this case, if EVERYONE on this message board deleted his or her posts a day or two after posting, what would the board look like? Would it be a valuable resource for newcomers? Would it be an interesting place to read?

Shades, you could be on to something. Just claim that the mysterious single-word replies or random punctuation marks left behind are ‘Q Drops’, give things a week for the word to get out, and our average online count will balloon to over 3000 visitors at any one moment.

When you entered this community, you didn't knock at the front door and present flowers or chocolate - Rather, you drove through the walls riding a bulldozer and you came with a clear and direct message to and for all of us here (challenges/criticism of this community) - You came with intent and you came under the bright lights of complete transparency. I understand that many think it was an inappropriate way to enter but, for whatever reason, it was the way you chose to enter. I believe you chose to make your entrance this way by design and with a purpose.

So, did your chosen method have any effect? While I can only answer that question for me, I can tell you that it got my full attention. I found your challenges and criticism to be sound and worthy of deep consideration. In addition, I was forced to evaluate my participation on the board as well as think about what motives I had/have to continue participating on the board.

… meanwhile, one month ago …

I think it would be an extraordinary claim to suggest that Cultellus didn't paly a role in all of this. Even if it just made some of the board members here pause for a second to think, reflect and consider things more closely.

Much like how folks flying airplanes into buildings a few decades back made other folks stop and think about airline security.

No, not really. Actually, I think this is one of your worst posts that I have seen …

Apparently, the problem there must have been that you have a preference for using construction equipment in your analogies. ; )

Excellent point.
