AFN: down the rabbit hole?

[Jack]

Once read someone say this site was intended to be a counterpart to the haven at WP not necessarily the opposite, and it seems appropriate to view it that way, a haven for those who communicate in a manner not accepted other places. Havens are about feelings; it's hard to tell people they feel wrong. If the members there find it a soft spot in their day, then good for them. Jack will be here.

But we miss you dear Scrappy.....

To me, AFN seems to have become a haven for overly sensitive Leftist types. They seem to mave become the Atheism+ of the Autistic Community.

For those of you not familiar, its the professional victim crowd, riding on the Ship of Fools, headed towards the Island of Misfit Toys to live happily ever after.

if I remember correctly you were whining cos the folks at ASD wouldnt let you play with them.

I think I still have the PM's from you

You are also confusing over-sensitive with people being friends and sharing with one another

Just because you didnt fit in with the members there, no sense in putting them down.

Some people that have heard of you, still like you there

I drop by AFN occasionally.

Many of the members lean toward the left politically. As intelligent and thoughtful people often do.

I see plenty of robust debate. If you post bollocks you get called on it. Politely.

The ability to debate politely is more important in my experience than the ability to debate impolitely.

Most of the senior members there have jobs. Some struggle, as is the case with many autistics. If AFN did not have members who struggle, it would not be representative of the reality that autistics face IRL.

Well I'd not fit in there that is for sure  I do believe the other term for molly codling is co-dependency just net form...

I do believe there are those that wish to stay 'stuck' and those that wish to become unstuck if that makes sense so it has it's legitimacy for a season if that makes sense...

There is such a thing as mess happening to us (it has happened to all of us regardless of NT or ASD) it is how we grow and move on gain tools and choosing to reach out for help in that sense I think it might have it's place...beyond that as I said there is a season in our lives when we need help, nor can I judge because I was there for a long while and still need help...

The difference has been in not being afraid to ask for help and not stopping when doors smack shut in my face this actually became a problem for me when some doors were meant to be closed and I couldn't get an outside outlook that was balanced until I got out of it and saw the shut door was shut for my good metaphorically speaking

I don't pass judgment at all, I was there and then some...I chose not to stay there however and grow, while others can't or won't...can't bring change until that person wants it for themselves, that's a fact jack...

Just how this Hannah sees it...

No, that's just the well known sanctimoniousness of modern liberals.

I see plenty of robust debate. If you post bollocks you get called on it. Politely.

Or if you go on there and post the truth that liberals don't like, they'll screech and throw their feces at you.

We do that? AFN does that? Oh My....

Now I am curious, is there a collection box for feces, so there can be stacked up on ammunition?

Scrap should tell more about this battling with shit.

All I hear is "AFN blah blah blah this, AFN did blah blah blah that, liberal, atheism, blah blah."

I thought you were fitting in okay

Scrap needs to be more specific about where they hid the shit. 

Vague allegations are not enough, proof is wanted.

They hid shit on AFF, yet not on AFN as far as I recall.

I was, but over time, it became a haven for SJW types.

SJW's are like a cancer, they will metastasise if they find a suitable host.

I was just fooling around, actually I don't give a 

But yeah, on AFF things did disappear, what was there one day could be gone another, in times of shit hitting fans.
