While I am aware that I haven’t been to most welcomed user, I would rather be in a place like this than anywhere else! (at least nothing that wants to eradicate belly fat LOL)

Munchies:
As far as I know, no one mentions you in the whisper networks, and I'm not aware of any efforts to get rid of you. I don't know anyone who has any real animosity towards you.

You've had some bad takes on things at most, but who hasn't? I haven't seen you go around trying to hurt anyone. I can't speak for private interactions, but publically, you are just some guy.

Stevia:
Yessss I very much so! It’s definitely a fine place where you can look and admire all that you like completely unapologetic!

Mmm! I was actually going to say something like that. And yes you are not wrong that I may have made some bad posts in the past that I shouldn’t have, but I do learn from the criticism and do better if I have learned something from it. Assuming that it wasn’t just plain old white noise.

Meanwhile here’s you who likes to think that you’re untouchable like some Greek philosopher or Jordan Peterson that everyone thinks is right. But this is not the discussion for that anyways. 🤷‍♂️

However, I did in fact made some GOOD posts and take on certain topics. I even had people messaging me about how they appreciated me for having a solid point and being brave to discuss my opinion on the said-topic, so I am grateful to know that there are people who do appreciate me. Maybe you don’t see that in me, but I (and other people) have. It’s like that saying: “to each their own”.

Also perhaps that I am just some guy, but I am a guy who has been told that I may have a solid point. I can’t care if people don’t like me… I’m not seeking validation of any sorts, but it’s the message that I am trying to convey. That’s what’s most important to me.

Do i appreciate the community?

Yes, i do. But at the same time, i know this community doesnt exist in a vacuum. Its prone to most of the problems the larger society currently has. I would like to be able to debate, especially about so called sensitive topics, but people here (as people everywhere!!) seem to suffer from cognitive dishonesty. On top of that, if this place has an ideology its propably a liberal one and thats sometimes problematic in a bunch of technical ways (In moderation for example - the rules are too simplistic, etc).

What do you think?

Morbidly A Beast:
Is this a place for people to defends one’s worldview or is it a place for fat people and their admirers share their experiences? You seem to want to defend some hard and ardent worldview and inject it when we’re just talking about our lives. Were as some people just want to exclude bigotry and hate from our space and aren’t interested in some intellectual defense of Hitler and the 3rd Reich because people don’t want to be harassed? Do you see the disconnect? Or am I just being “cognitively dishonest”?

Enas:
This is a place for discussion, among other things, specialized for and friendly towards feedism. That does not exlude debating worldviews, since you put it like that.

Each person has a theory. And how they subjectivise (how they personally choose to "read".) and then describe their experiences matters a lot. Thats just to point out the relevance of what i like to talk about, with peoples' experiences. Im really interested in these theories / philosophies.

I dont know if you suffer from that, id need to have a conversation about controversial topics with you, to find out.
