Union



We are getting some of the same things.
As I have said before, there is only one message everyone in a power position understands. And It's Money.

Unionize and tell Skinner you are not pleased how women and their issues are treated here and speak with your dollar/vote. Cancel and ask for a refund.

Guess we are going to have to get back to work on the plans for those feminist re-education camps.

The ones who matter already know, or ask honest questions. The ones who don't have made their disinterest clear.

So, you know I don't really hang out in GD much. Sea was getting so much shit I decided to give it a try. One thing I noticed is an immediate assumption of what my opinions must be on certain topics--none of which had anything to do with the OP. Another is there are three sharp tendencies; one is simple snark--some are way better at it than others and I actually have a personal favorite----he might be an ass, but at least he's an entertaining ass---another is a tendency toward wordiness, without actually saying much, and the third is anger-to-rage.

In general, a waste of time. I may not use ignore, but I'm starting to make judicious use of the 'trash thread' option.

forever here on DU3.

The posters that have issues project them ( no matter what the topic ) on the members of this group. It's constant and annoying.

I had to take a double look at what people were trying to say, because I was like "where did that come from"? I was kind of mean a time or two, I prefer not, because I can be quite cruel and its nothing I'm proud of.

When I found myself at the level of about 6th grade, I gave one exchange up. Then I noticed it ALL ends up at 6th grade, or in one case, 9th grade. It was time to move on.

like the people. For me, I have to choose stay and continue to get out our message.

Since DU3 I don't think our donations mean squat anyway. I think this site depends more on advertisements as their main dollar source.

It is a sad day though when 3 feminist groups have requested two words added to the TOS and we are told they are not needed. Like I said before he can't know what he doesn't know. And I don't think he will know until he has someone in his family or circle of personal friends seriously effected by those two words as many of the women on this site have been. *sigh*

You did a great job in ATA. You did us proud. Thank You.

Norma Rae is my all time favorite movie!
