I don't text, don't do Twitter, don't do face book, don;t have a smart phone. Never saw the need for all that stuff.

I was shadow banned on twitter after a fellow academic asked an honest question of why anyone would have voted for President Trump. I wrote an honest reply on my reasons and got jumped on by followers and non-followers alike. After a prospective parent called the university to demand I be fired, I figured the collateral damage to students was not worth the trouble. Enough folks reported and blocked my account that I was shadow banned. Not much of a loss. I left Facebook right after the 2016 election after an administrator invited me to lunch to discuss my vote. Unfortunately for my colleagues, I don't feel angry at the treatment, just apathetic.

So far I find this site to be quite interesting.

I’m really liking it. Still working out how things work myself, and look forward to the next round of privileges with the rising levels. I like that it encourages civil debate while also allowing for a range of views, although I’m aware that it is a predominantly conservative population. I’ve only seen some instances of angst and that seems to have come from what I understand is the 2% who identify as SJW. No doubt they’d be frustrated pretty quickly when faced with a barrage of like-minded counter-argument.

The only other thing I’ve found recently is that, as a non-uni educated person, I don’t feel that I can keep up with a lot of arguments and conversations. I have an interest and an opinion on most things, but often don’t have what’s required to be profound on a subject or the necessary depth of knowledge to support my views. This is making me a bit gun-shy about posting - on this forum you’ll be called out if you’re spouting rubbish, or making claims that really are just an emotional response to an issue. This is all a good thing, of course; it’s just that I don’t like being argued against, and then being proven wrong!

I just go to my home page you can find them there I like this site so far
