Meetup s Meetup started in 2002, and I only heard about it in 2013, when I became a member and like you, later inherited a group. So, I have seen both sides of the coin and as you might imagine, being an organizer for five years, I have much to say about people and group dynamics. Despite it...

It seems that this forum is in dire need of new topic, so I’d like to ask if anyone of you lonely people has ever tried it. It used to be a great place to meet people and make friends. As everything else, it got ruined by …. we the people! We just can‘t have nice things anymore. Basically, you...

Not sure if discussing this further has any value. I thought about leaving, but I can just be content to reading others point of view without expressing my opinion. I might still leave if this forum ends up consuming me more than I want. I am writing this to say I was not angry. I felt a need to...

For these who care, here is the screenshot of the conclusion or the thread. I was about to abandon discussion since I couldn’t get to the bottom of his complaining. This topic interests me, so I stuck around more than I should have. If he didn’t end up biting his own tail regarding silencing, it...

That was not in the “free speech“ thread. Closing the thread was hit and run - cowardly. Whining about censorship and free speech ending with “free speech for me but no for thee” was hypocritical. Saying I give whole gender bad name was outrageously insulting. So, I spoke up in a separate post...

Exactly right. I am sorry for new people thinking it’s all drama. Free speech turned on its head was delicious. At no point have I insulted anyone in the closed thread. If interested point out where that happened, I will apologize for that.

anyone who had negative experience due to my ”look at me” rule braking post. Standing up for myself I will always do, damn the consequences. It’s good for the soul. When a free speech grievance deteriorates into “snowflake“ hater becoming one, when conversation becomes increasingly about...

I don’t think you can, but I believe if you start a thread, you can close it. Maybe some pros would confIrm.

I think they don’t want to be K9. They oozing with pride… Rebels without a clue… ugh

You know who you are. Edited post, dished out insults and “canceled” the discussion. A self professed free speech ******** artist can’t deal when a strong woman stands up to him.

Just saw this right wing propaganda, so not ok with it. One would think that this type of forum would be more careful who they sell themselves to.

I wouldn’t lose any sleep so go for it random dude on the Internet, permission is granted. The world is collapsing because your high, mighty, invaluable and original opinion is not plastered someplace. Cry more behind a nifty slogan, I haven’t collected enough of your tears.

Some people just want to complain, not explain. Give me the pity for I am canceled wah wah. I am so good, obviously I would never cross the N word line, but I am canceled and a victim because what I really want to say is baaaaad and now I must be silent, poor me.

Guys, what you allow will continue. Both sound like codependent relationships, a tango between a victim and a hero. Don’t try to save her, fix her, by now you know you can’t. Time is ticking.

Truly sorry your wife takes you for granted. Kudos to you!

Def not you. It’s the complainers who won’t say why they feel canceled and what it means to them. Do they have red line, or not, should there be one, and where is it.

I feel like I have nothing to offer. I am extremely disappointed in people and due to my negative outlook, I stay away from forming new relationships. I can hardly stand being around myself, why inflict it on others.

Very few users are chiming in, likely they are rolling their eyes at the ones who keep this going. In this thread, I asked questions that remained unanswered. I played devils advocate to see if there is a red line, or anything should be allowed. Bullying is a huge problem, scaring some for life...

Being subjected to misogyny, women have the ability to sniff it out. And you did say “thinly vailed”. Careful wording around it provides no cover. We see you.
