RE: The Great Escape

Hey mate, I hope you're well.

I don't see anything on Blurt; it seems like a bit of a terrible place from what I've heard.

They all deserve each other and none of their smack-talking has any relevance anywhere but in their own tortured minds. At the end of the day each and everyone of them is trapped; trapped within the prison that is themselves and the way they think and act makes that place quite terrible I'm sure. They can talk smack if they like, but when it's quiet, when they're alone, I'm sure being them is their worst nightmare.

Sort:  

A quick glance at their 'new' feed was all it took. Was simply checking for volume and quality (pathetic) and about seven posts down the feed I stumbled into it. Can't even call it coherent. Certainly not worth losing sleep over. Just the usual unhinged cringe typical of that community cult. Building their bonds upon a foundation of hating the same people and things is most certainly a trap. Looking further but still at a glance, I discovered more drama; same players from months ago but now they're all focused on one another (that was inevitable). Part of me thought they would have wised up by now but it's clear those types simply, can't. Still going, after that much time, all while feeding off one another. Stuck in that trap while eating themselves to death. Truly no different than a slum.

I'm doing well. Just getting caught up on things. Spent about ten minutes on that. To be honest, it was more humorous to me than alarming. But I did spend some time digging around looking for, The Rest of the Story, before I mentioned anything here. It's not hard to see who's in the wrong and why you guys just brush it off now. I'd do the same.

Building their bonds upon a foundation of hating

Yeah, it's predictable; the funny thing is, that they probably hate themselves more then anyone else.

The rest of the story is the usual thing. I asked that user not to post in my community in dual language as I've set that as a rule. He whined, unfollowed me then deleted his post replacing the text with "deleted." Once he did that, I was forced to mute it from the community feed. He took offense, called me some things that were uncalled for and began to attack. He was addressed (by many, many users) and went to Blurt. Now, well, he's handed out almost 70 DV's to me in the last couple days (which amount to about a grand total of $1 combined) and probably feels empowered by that and the gathering of minds that goes on over at Blurt.

Classic case fully equipped with the downward spiral and everything. Some folks stubbornly stick to their guns, shoot up their feet, then blame the ground they walk on for the pain. Noticing the same damn pattern over the past few years. Also noticing it's nearly impossible to talk them down from that ledge; those types. Not even worth placing a pad down to land on. They tend to bounce right back up just to do it all over again. Those latching on to share in the hatred are in essence only there to encourage the jump and watch the fall. It's gross. All over some petty shit and a few bucks, every time. I've come to terms with the fact I'll never be able to fix it. I'm still quite fond of studying this stuff though. Being ten steps ahead of crazy might come in handy some day...

Yep, classic indeed.

Had he said, oh ok, no worries, like most others have he'd still have a Hive account worth something.

You hit the nail on the head I guess. People like this cause their own issues, but will always blame others and there's no point in trying to change the fact. Some may come to better decisions on their own accord, but when they all group together they don't have much chance of rising above.

Factor in how some were duped into pouring money into that dump only to lose it. So they'll now prey on literally anyone here who might have an issue with something or someone. Convincing them to jump ship plus bring their money with them. Pretending to care but the reality is they're desperate to recoup those losses, even if it means taking advantage of people on their worst days. Posing as saviors. And that trick isn't even exclusive to blurt. People have been falling for it for years. Gotta find out the hard way I guess.

Agreed, and also on your comment about preying on people who are miffed elsewhere just so they bring a long a few funds. Again, it's predictable behaviour. I'm glad they're there and not on Hive though.

I always wanted to see what would happen if those types were all placed in one room. So it happened. And the results I'm seeing is what I expected. Predictable indeed. I can point to a remark I made months ago stating the outcome I'm now able to observe. Meanwhile, they've no clue what hit them, and never will.
