A note on "tyranny," kindness, and the reality of user self-sufficiency

[jasonstevanhill]

You’re not provocative. You’re privileged and you’re ignorant.

And you’re far from unique.

I posted this a little over a year ago in response to a new forum user who was acting much like you are right now. You might consider reading the whole thread.

Forum rules and easily offended people

@Zeke I have, in the past, described the forums as a coffeeshop (adjacent to a film-house, but that part of the metaphor isn’t relevant here). And there are a lot of people in this coffeeshop who come here to relax and be with friends, and look at the dailies from each other’s movies. And while I can see from your history that, yes, you’ve purchased a scone or a latte a couple of times over the past two years, you are not a regular, and you’re not tuned in to the culture of the coffeeshop. So…

Regardless, this thread is now closed. If you have any further concerns about the forum rules, feel free to email me.
