The devolution of OTG
Priders,
I have been contacted by several of you via private message thanking me for pointing out the idiocy of one particular member, but also saying that they are done with the OTG thread because of said member.
It is clear that this person has made it his own personal jihad to turn the UDPride OTG thread into the cyberspace equivalent of downtown Baltimore. Just like we see in our national discourse, there is a concerted effort to shut down conservative discussions, marginalize those who speak out, and otherwise destroy civil discourse.
I have attempted to use my well honed Gen X fighter pilot wit to point out said idiocy in the belief that ridicule is the best medicine, but it's clear that, even when presented with the utter fallacy of his beliefs, evidence to the contrary, or simply a cyber boot to the head to knock it off, this individual continues to triple down and act like a three year old with a keyboard.
While I am loathe to suggest this, as I really don't like the idea, I am calling for all those done with the cyber arsonist lurking on this board to put him on permanent ignore and let the stony silence be his reward for being the petulant child that he is.
Sorry, but I'm tired of seeing good people walk away from a board that I have enjoyed frequenting, all because one person continues to soil his diaper.
