(7,982 posts)Nothing specific to say about this magnificent forum after 293 posts, just a blanket condemnation and a complete abdication of all civic responsibility. Which happens to people, you know. It's a natural thing for sick creatures to crawl away and hide.
The truth is that staying in the fight and continuing to express opinions takes courage and strength, which fails all of us at some point. Me, I take great solace in this place. I'm amazed at the river of information and analysis, never seen anything like it, love every bit of it. But maybe someday I'll lose my heart as you have and withdraw to get closer to the dirt-nap stage.
You have failed to shame us, however, if that was your intent. You say nothing relevant or instructive except about your internal world view, which is clearly dismissive of all human beings that are not you. Classic. Consider, though, that declaring failure and opting only for self-preservation is not a brave or kind thing to do. Human, yes. Primal, yes. Worthy? Thoughtful? Not so much.
Luck of the former Democratic Undergrounder to you, short though your time may have been.
