Is there an App for this site? or atleast an icon you can just press to open. if it is not in front of you, then people will forget they have it.

Just arrived, hoping to have some stimulating conversation somewhere I feel comfortable being myself and not having to walk on eggshells. Fingers crossed and best of luck going forward in this new voyage!

Having individuals or groups have the ability to post live videos. Being able to share content from elsewhere to this forum over here. I want to thank Sydney Watson for having her supporters become aware of your public form.

One of the concerns I have with posting is the spell-check mechanism used. Marking a word as being misspelled is useful but could be made even more so by:
-offering alternatives
-allowing a word to be added to the dictionary
-vastly increasing the word entries in your dictionary
FWIW,
Dale

Suggestion - I saw this video posted on the site. It is so good I think you should include it with the tutorial on the help page.

The video is -How dogma pollutes discourse and is on Youtube and is posted in a Group on SLUG.

Do you have the link?

@Admin

https:// www.youtube.com/ watch?v=o6-Htscvf4k (I have included spaces in the URL so you can see theURL)

They have some other videos but I have not had chance to check them out yet.

No image propagation with posted links.

Can you elaborate?

My first day on the community. I expected a civilized, and thoughtful argumentative community, and found something completely different. Perhaps a thumbs down button would be useful so that those who post nonsense get some feedback.

Use the "angry face" 🙂

Hi, I am continuously alerted to replies, by 2 individuals having an argument after I made a comment. Their argument has nothing to do with me... yet I'm getting lots of alerts all day long about their replies to each other, can this be stopped or can you only alert the person being replied to not the person who originally replied. Hope I made that clear, its is a bit confusing if you don't actually see whats happening.

@AlpacaLunch Would defeat the idea of posting in the first place eh...

Hi, Admin! One quick question: What are profile questions, and why don´t I have any?

@AlpacaLunch @UlrichArbes ... whoops, fixed it 🙂

@Admin Thank you. New nitpick: If I vote for more than one item in a category, only the last one I choose seems to be processed! (At least that´s what the message says.)

@Admin Thank you. Another small nitpick, though: If I vote for more than one item, only the last item I vote for is processed, or at least that´s what the message says?!

Thank you! First day here so I'm a bit slow with this still so sorry for responding so late. I look forward to reading and participating in more discussions.

Most everything worked fine for me so far; one exception:
Sorting comments, like those under your post, by most liked seems not to wai.
(Not sorted by # of likes.)

fixed 🙂

Suggestion: I get the impression that SLUG is growing quite quickly. There seem to be more comments and groups than when I joined. If this is true how about giving everyone a boost by giving us some stats?

We are sponsoring youtube/etc channels with banned content so new signups is spikey... we've 60k+ members now

I'd like to see the honest, civil disagreement I miss so much in real life. I used to be on the left myself and my mind was gradually changed by stimulating conversation with a few people who were patient and thoughtful enough not to write off different points of view. (I still wouldn't call myself conservative but certainly liberal in the classical sense, or libertarian in the modern one.) I try actively not to get into any echo chamber and I hope this platform won't become just another one.

Provide a means to allow the originators to veiw comments on their posts sorted out by each original post and the commenbts related to it.

This country was founded on the principles of freedom and responsibility. It was a grand experiment conceived of by great thinkers - men of character and conscience. Perfect? No man is perfect. The ideals on which the country was founded started to be pecked away at almost immediately.

I have done a lot of reading and thinking of late. Still recovering from or dealing with the PTSD that I reluctantly had to admit was a bi-product of being in a 10 year relationship with a psychopath, I struggled to understand what had just happened to me. Then this. When one is in the midst of discovering that an errant type of human exists, learning what gaslighting is, etc., it is easy to see how the country and its purpose are deliberately being subverted.

One of my go to phrases is: I've endured enough BS for 3 lifetimes and I don't need any more. I started being aware of a huge cognitive dissonance happening as the covid crisis unfolded. Nothing made sense. Everything was contradictory. Information was chaotic. I started looking deeper. I have always been a cynic and never willing to believe anything I was being told on TV without checking it out for myself.

The more digging I did, the more compelling evidence I found that most of what we've been told is a crock. In addition, I had pretty much bought the narrative that Trump is a megalomaniac A-hole. But, regardless of what I thought of HIM personally, I could see without a shadow of a doubt that he had done a lot more for this country in 3 years than these career politicians had EVER done. Now I am left questioning if I didnt judge him to harshly.

Recently I learned about all the Epstein nonsense. (Its amazing what you can avoid knowing about with no network TV) Suddenly the two streams of new found knowledge found each other and became a river of awareness. While studying the psychopathic mind, I discovered that they are ALL are secure deviants, they ALL have no conscience, they ALL are glib and charming, and they are ALL LIARS! In fact. They lie even when they don't have to. They are hugely arrogant. They tell so many lies, they can't even remember the ones they told. They pay people to be in their court (or trick them into compromising situations to use for later manipulation.

This is the left. It is a group of psychopaths. Like Hitler, like Xi Jinping, like the Clinton's (dbl whammy on that pair) like Fidel, like Mussolini, like Stalin. 90% of humanity is good. But the 10% that is not has no conscience and the world is a game to them. People's lives mean nothing. They care not what they destroy. They want to win. They need to come out on top. This absolutely is a war of Good vs. Evil.. Good has a conscience, can feel guilt or shame and empathy. Evil has none of that.

That's all for now.

I just watched fall cabal. Damn. I was right.
