Say it, go ahead. It's not my turn. We can all get thrown off here and meet on Usenet somewhere, possibly make our own group. I don't push these issues on here, for whatever reason they are not very welcome. But you fucking know it and I fucking know it. Sometimes I think everybody damn near knows it. I mean a two minute conversation with the pizza guy today, guess what came up ? We all know it. We use this site for free. There are some things better left unsaid here. If you think I am kidding about Usenet you are mistaken. I am not saying we abandon CM, but certain subjects would be better off,,,,,,,,, unmoderated. This site wants a certain image and exists for a certain purpose. On the other hand Usenet does not care. Usenet does not care about anything. You could threaten to kill the President and it would probably take them a year to get you. I have seen some crazy shit on Usenet. To setup email, an SMTP is setup, to get on Usenet an NNTP must be setup, unless you want to get to it through Google groups. It is in the "more" button. It rolls out and you click groups. Once you find one you can bookmark it, just be careful to bookmark the group, not an individual message. From my rant of today, I deleted three paragraphs in toto, to stay out of trouble. But I do have the balls to say this much, even here : (watch how careful) What group of downtrodden, oppressed people who have never gotten a fair break throughout history wields the power to shut the Peoples' criticism of them down, almost anywhere ? What group of people who are morally superior and have been ejected from every country at one time or another, who does nothing but good in the world runs organizations that have been caught plotting a bombing, and breaking into government offices to steal records on US Citizens ? Now everybody shutup and lets figure out a name for the Usenet group. And get a new email, it will be visible. And there will be spam. So do not sacrifice one of your normal email addresses to that. You only need to recieve one email to get on. Like here anybody can read, but only members can post. This is life in the big city folks. Consider Usenet out in the country. Down in these parts, well, keep it up and see what happens. I am not saying it is right or wrong. I am here for free, Know what, I think my post (the rant) almost got pulled. It had mention of those who are, well, not to be described. I think it was saved by the fact that someone was already responding to it. Actually I don't believe I crossed the line, but I know it looked like I was going to. I'm told, and know, that it disappeared for a time. You see I am on the list. Last time I was on it, there was an option to start a new group. I think I'll give that a whirl. Thing is, you'll never get kicked off of Usenet. We can talk about all kinds of things there, like the guy who brought in a half million hits of ecstasy and did two years for it in a foreign prison instead of the 200 years he should have done in a US prison. Anyone want to guess what country he "paid his debt to society" in ? As a result of the restriction here, I have alot less to say about politics. But that is how it is here. You got one forum for this, you got one forum for that, and so forth. Perhaps tomorrow I take a crack at starting a Usenet group, If I am successful, just make a new email, apply, recieve one email and you are all set. And let me warn you, Usenet preceeded the internet and is widely used by academicians around the world, much more so than CM. When you put it out there folks, you are really putting it out there. Putting it on the line here, under the cloak of semi-anonymity is not brave. If you have any real balls you will come to Usenet and get really up front. Nobody can stop you, or me, or anybody. But it is there for the world to see, not just kinky people, not just people looking for a piece of ass, ALL people. Americans are largely unaware of Usenet, but some are extremely involved in it. It is more popular in other countries. Some of you in my age range might remember Usenet from college if you went. You might have even accessed it from a UNIX terminal. But there is one thing about Usenet, absolutely noone controls it. It's almost like a P2P network. Not quite, but close. Noone can control it due to the way it is set up. That's how P2Ps get away with transferring millions of dollars worth of media evey month. It is not centralized. There is noone to sue. Don't get me wrong, Usenet is closely watched. If you make death threats to public officials or some stupid shit like that, they will come. They will track you IP and all that and literally show up at your door. But then it is a matter of when. But be forewarned, do not get stupid. You can get alot bolder there, but you still can't get stupid. I will look into it. And don't answer my questions, I don't need any more answers right now. Oh, if we do go Usenet to talk about ummmmmmmmmm "middle east issues", don't invite those who like to fight. Let them argue about something else. I think CM is great, but there are certain subjects that are a nono here. I swear I can feel Mod11's body heat behind me. I'll get on the Usenet thing tomorrow, it is too close to bedtime to do it tonight. (yea three AM) Perhaps that is it. The name of the Usenet group. alt.antisemitic.perjorative Hmmm. I like that. Or should that be a g instead of a j ? not sure at the moment. But I'll find out. T
