How about your putting down others by accusing them of being responsible for fostering antisemitism.How about the exaggerations and overgeneralizations in your warnings to people that they should not listen to their doctors, but, rather, believe those things to be found on the eHealthme website that you habitually cite almost exclusively.
I only wish that you were posting things that you knew not to be true so as to have you be sanctioned by administration (e.g. your contention that any organic compound containing a benzene ring is poisonous). They are untrue, of course, but that you really believe them is lamentable.
Your posts could arouse sentiments of anti-psychiatry. This could influence people to forgo medical treatment and could leave them in a condition that allows them to kill themselves or others.
In what ways do you feel that your posts contribute to civic harmony on Psycho-Babble?

I do not believe calling people disturbed or nuts makes anyone a wonderful poster. Dinah may of course have many other fine and useful qualities.
I have not seen any administrative policies broken to accommodate you. Quite the opposite. I believe you have been given restrictions that do not apply to other posters and that Bob has permitted years of abusive posts toward you by other posters. He has changed administrative policies in ways that disadvantage you. For example the years of refusing to take action on your posts and allowing this sort of public debate about your civility.

The last series of posts before she blocked herself seemed to me to be completely lacking in appreciation and respect for her and the other deputies, all of whom appear to have been extremely hurt and disillusioned by your interactions with them - all while you were focussing almost entirely on Lou, and breaking your own long-standing administrative policies in order to accommodate him alone.

> Perfect!!!!
It sickens me.
It really does.
I don't like disagreeing with Dr. Bob, especially with such vehemence, but this whole Lou Pilder thing has changed the milieu and personality of this website in ways that challenge my ability to reign in the triggering of my emetic chemoreceptors.
I hope some greater good will come of Dr. Bob's motivations. The cost to Psycho-Babble has been very high, and is growing higher.
I hope Twinleaf returns. I hope Dinah returns as well. Their contributions have been enormous in scope and depth.

You wrote the above that shows that you understand a lot of the crux of the matters in question.
One of those concerns is the years of outstanding notifications and requests of mine to Mr Hsiung.Let us look at this:

Lou does present a challenge to Babble. And represents a challenge to psychiatry. Every day, people forgo treatment for reasons that don't have anything to do with Lou. How might they be influenced to undergo treatment instead?

If I use the word feel than can't get blocked? That's the way I understand it anyway. So how try to convince them to not believe all they read half of what they see. Phillipa

you could simply block them from society. confine them somewhere... in the name of 'helping'.

you could tell them that they are causing their own suffering / distress if they don't do the 'treatment'. that they are responsible for the suffering / distress of others.

Hmm. Well, looking for a positive and constructive posture to take is a start. I'm going to try something new. We'll see.

>Bob,
I agree with the content of Twinleaf's post. I also feel it was expressed in a reasonably respectful manner. I strongly disagree with your blocking her.

I don't agree with the substance of Twinleaf's message concerning Lou but it seemed to be expressed quite civilly.

I can't believe that I'm a witness to such an abuse of civility. Truly, sincerely, there is no better example of what civility actually is, than to protect individuals from the throwing of sh*t upon them.
And you just stood by...........it's also a quote from Larry's 2 week block.......yes it is.... cussedy cuss cuss hmmm maybe support my block yes support equal blocks for all
Why should Larry get a block and not me?
PS I hear deputy racer has really stinky BO (please add bonus for insulting privileged class.)

How odd that you would say something like that after all the cussedy cuss cussing you did when someone presumed to understand you! You'll be pleased to hear I'm not hurting at all. (Or maybe you won't be I wouldn't presume to know your feelings;).

What about convincing (teaching) the thrower of sh*t to stop throwing it?
