(57,314 posts)In comparison to the point of the PSA, which is raising awareness about rape? I may feel lots of things, but it wouldn't occur to me that I should post them. There are some things I just don't get, but I know it's not appropriate for me to voice those feelings. The idea should be to engage reason in determining what one thinks is appropriate discussion for a political message board. I would think on some level that would include considering how others may be impacted by what you write.
If your group were confined to discussing issues, you would face far less scrutiny. Sadly, many of us find ourselves the topic of gossip there, as I did just today, whereas you then banned the person who sought to correct the record. I don't look in that group very often because I find most things there incredibly offensive, but on the rare occasion I do, I see members calling out feminists, sometimes by name. Juries allow you all to post any foul thing you want, and members there have taken full advantage to generate witch hunts and express their unbridled hatred for certain women, including myself. I see that as a flagrant misuse of the group function on this site, particularly since Skinner has said it isn't right to talk about banned members who can't defend themselves.
