Hey!!! If you are LIHOP you are fucking up the cause!!! (Purge????)
Advertisements [?]
I cant believe the rhetoric that is being spewed about anyone who postulates any kind of conspiracy theory!!! Yes I get it about London, I got it from the get go and never posted a theory on that yet (Like many many other CT'ers) because anyones guess is just as good as anyone elses right now (no matter how badly you might wnat to knee jerk this on Islam).

But 9/11 LIHOP?? Yes thats right apparently you can't even do that anymore if some DU'ers have their way. They believe we CT'ers (LIHOP'ers and beyond according to some of these anti CT DUers) should be purged much like dKos did there, (which is fine if thats what Kos wants), I have yet to have ever seen any Admin take the position that all CT'ers should be purged though. Ive seen them come down on certain theories and rightfully so as most of us would have done the same thing in those cases (tsunami weapons and all).

Let me say though that I need some questions answered first about some of these crazy conspiracies about CT'ers. Before I go ahead and leave DU and encourage all other Ct'ers to do so as most of us really dont like to be where we are secretly hated and despised as being bad for a common cause when we work so hard for that common cause.

First. If you are anti CT, then please please PLEASE fuckin define it already!!!! Most of you who have been posting on certain threads have used such broad strokes that I think you mean just about the largest chunk of DU there is, within your ever so vague and caveatless definition.

Second. While you insist on using those BROAD brush strokes you have also tended to associate a large amount of DU'ers with being holocaust deniers and actual freepers and in at least one case being actual government operatives. Do you realize the insult that is to those of us that aren't (which I guarentee is the vast majority of CT'ers)??? If you don't than please stop reading this because you will never get what I'm saying here due to your lack of empathy.

Third who but Skinner and Admin get to the set the rules? It is most assuredly not you, you would just tombstone a lot of the best and most active DU'ers out here. So even after you all reach a definition of Conspiracy Theory that does not mean its going to even necessarily match up with your allies on this endeavor let alone a majority of DU or Admins.

Fourth. Where in the hell can you show me that we are in fact deeply hurting DU?? As so many of you seem to be so up in arms about us and that is your reasoning, please list some facts where CT has been detrimental to DU besides the obvious Tsunami/Vapor Trail stuff??? (thats not meant to offend those CT'ers who do believe in that, I have empathy for how you got to such a place of thought i just think they dont work on DU and Admin doesn't either).

Fifth. Do you not think it is slightly wrong to constantly berate and stab in the back and try to censor your fellow DU'ers during these times?? Especially since so many of them seem to be activist minded and are generally caring people? Who have every bit of a right to not trust anything their government says as well as anything from some anonymous poster that doesn't know the first thing about tact and or their targets personal situation? In short do you ever wonder how come so many have run for the tinfoil and why don't you at least respect the people behind the post instead of labeling them "stupid" "idiot" "holocaust denying" "freepers"?

I just have to say that over the last few days I like many DU'ers have been truly depressed its been one big cry-fest since the bombing, then Andy and I have some serious personal things going on.. so maybe its just me, but this kind of a stab in the back I have witnessed on DU over the last day or so has left me in free fall, so if you agree with me I could really use some positive reinforcement... If you don't then go ahead, I cant be made to feel much worse.

Also if the mods or and Admin would like to step in to say something go ahead even if its that yes the anti-CTers are right and the rest of us should the hell up or get tombstoned. Tell us because I dont want to waste your time and space and as well as my own.
