(14,659 posts)And one of the"hottest" trigger finger alert bait is any criticism of the party either about how they excecuted the last election or the general direction of the party. Especially if it involves using quotes or actions by individuals that are outside of the establishment core of the party.
And what is so odd about that is now it is more verboten in here than in the leadership of the party itself! That while the party itself is in the process of evaluation and unifying, in here you have to walk on eggshells careful not to criticise the wrong issue or people or conversely praise the wrong issue or people.
IMO the devastating loss in November invited two responses: retreat back into a protective defensive shell or open the door to people's ideas and criticisms, even those that might raise your hackles, in order to grow and move forwards. I always thought we were smart enough and tolerant enough for that in here.
