I am glad you you returned to pop in with the great soundbytes

Sure. Disagree with facts regarding how the forum works.

@Willy Phallicus in all seriousness, you know your answers aren't contributing much quality here. The context of the thread and question is very clear. Stripping out context and disagreeing with the frame is why your statements are just - blah.

It's the system. I've no idea who decided on the implementation. Perhaps ask Leo. Access and use of the forum is a privilege. Not a right.

I'm booking it right now 😄

It's automatic when you violate the guidelines enough.

@Willy Phallicus itchy

You had me - I thought it was intended

You said it, you revealed it. Glad I could make you itchy

Funny confession - reveals a lot about the story you've got. Evasion.

@OBEler

@Willy Phallicus you're a young chap, yeah?

@Monster Energy accumulated enough warning points via forum guideline violations to qualify for an automatic system ban. I thought the community should know for closure. Leaving this open for anyone to pass on well wishes to him 🙏🏻🫶🏻

This is why the quality of our focus needs to be trained, not just the ability to focus. The lower our consciousness in this world, the easier it is to manipulate our perception of reality. Look at Trump. MAGA. Systems of control. The UFO phenomenon works the same. Raise your awareness, train your quality of focus and consciousness. Lift the veil of perception away to see reality, deception free...

@Etherial Cat appreciate your words and contributions also. There's a lot of uninspected social conditioning being revealed in this thread. No one can transcend biology or incentive structures. Not even the awakened... I think we are done here. Closed.

You sound really confused by my comment. What came out above reveals more about your pathology than anything else.

Two forces of power meeting and deciding not to smash each other speaks less civility to me than someone with power choosing to treat those weaker than them with autonomy & respect.

What's wrong with that?

Regardless, whats done is done. Let this thread return to farewelling @Emerald I apologise for the derail.

I think it's run its course naturally now. I'll add that I also dislike when users also try to psychologically profile others and reduce them to a bunch of mechanisms to explain behaviour. Or explain motivations behind some lines of argument (particularly when our proposals or arguments are not accepted). It does nothing but turn the person against us and impede charitable reception of our own ideas and concepts. It can also lock us to a frame of explaining a person. Rather than understanding. This leads to frequently misunderstanding or misinterpreting their points because we are preoccupied trying to fit them to a preconceived frame. It does nothing but shoot us in the foot debate wise to engage in this type of analysis of others openly. @oOo appreciate you

@oOo I take great personal issue with how users engaged with @Emerald and @Xonas Pitfall in the above topic you linked. Instead of a dialogue, exchange of ideas and debate in a mature & charitable manner - there was all manner of slippery dishonest character attacks, condescension, sly jabs at people's capacity for understanding or general topic knowledge and overall dishonest debate tactics. Agreeing to disagree is a great, albeit rarely conceded outcome, on this forum. The manner of engagement made me wish to lock the thread, not the topic itself. Unfortunately I woke up after the majority of the damage was done.

Coffee in the morning - just one dose (I dont split it up). Mainly because it dissolves and I can't tell it's in the coffee. Sediment in my liquid makes me 🤢🤮

This topic (men, women, gender roles, masculinity / femininity) has been one of the biggest recurring forum crashouts EVER! I just want to pitch in and say I value all of your contributions and perspectives. I am not here to be right or wrong (I know some are). We are all on the same side, in the end. None of us are getting out of this alive! Love you all!!

I don't think jail really works to rehabilitate people. We can try to raise awareness around violence. Overall we need to reassess how we all act out our emotional states. Mature emotional processing and inner awareness needs to be taught as a skillset at school. I don't think I said nothing is being done to change men - at least, that was not my meaning. I think there are wider systemic issues that come into play where the solution has always been to restrict women. Just inviting some brainstorming around alternative possibilities to address issues. These are valid given the different contexts you illustrate. My context was women in society. Not women vs nature or other risks/hazards. I did not claim I want women to be completely safe. No one will ever be completely safe. It isn't all or nothing. The context is modern society.

You might say this, but I guarantee your actions say something else. This isn't contributing anything quality to OP's topic.
