*Shakes Her Head*

OK, the Drama(tm) started on note_to_asshat has now taken a truly ridiculous turn. Some wanker started note_to_elorie. Now, it could have been a member of childfree. Some people there are that immature. Or it could have been a sock puppet of elorie herself, just to claim some sort of victory - but I doubt it - she's not that clever.

But really, giving her that much attention?? Silly.

EDIT: Oh, and in her little crowdown on note_to_asshat, she is "allowing" comments, but screening them and deleting the ones that score a zinger on her. What a chickenshit - only shit that agrees with her is allowed, in a rant community. While I can understand it in a personal journal, and fully support it there, it's rather de classe in a community. What a pathetic waste, but what I've come to expect of fluffybunnies like her.

It's not at all wrong, in a community where the info states that she is the final arbiter. I would disagree with being in a community that is so explicit about that as hers is, most likely, but it is laid out in plain view.

For the record, while I don't have her friended anymore, I do know that she doesn't tend to be a fluffybunny. She does enjoy a good grandstand though and these people played right into her hands.

Anyways, I hate to say, but this is one more thing that leads me to childfree and cf_hardcore. I think at this point, I'm going to have to remove you from my reading list. It's not a personal judgment over you, but the fact that those places make my blood pressure rise insanely. I know you've argued, as have other people, that you and these communities are not talking about well-behaved children, etc., etc., but I can't handle the overwhelming bigotry.

I don't think it's cool to take the fact that some people are astounded/amazed/offended/pissed off that (generic) you don't want children as an excuse to turn into bigots who throw around ephitets yourself. Yeah, it's kept in that community and as long as it stays in safe spaces, well, that the person's choice. However, spreading it out elsewhere is not only going to get a major response, it's going to end up being interpreted as trolling, which it almost always is.

Calling ANY little girl, no matter how snotty, a "cuntbunny" steps so far over the line that I can't even understand someone trying to defend it. Sorry.

I've enjoyed our interactions over the years and I appreciate a lot of your viewpoints. I just can't handle the stuff about childfree-bigotry that comes up occasionally, though.

I wish you all the best.

?? WTF??

I don't put the CF slang in my journal, and I seldom mention childfree. Also, I am *NOT* a member of cf_hardcore. They are too strident and nasty for me.

I never ask anyone to read childfree or cf_hardcore. Really. I put the links so people know what communities I'm talking about.

While it may not be wrong to be a "final arbiter" in a community you own, it's still de classe, IMO.

It came across to me somewhat as if you were defending the person who ranted, not just protesting what happened with the community.

Mainly, my big complaint is that my blood pressure just goes up reading about some of the stuff that gets said and it would probably be a good idea for me to stay away from it.

Yeah, I don't like to read cf_hardcore, they just annoy me.
