Re: Should there be a boycott of guppies? (split from a thread in WA)
There is an old joke:
There were a number of prisoners in a prison, all them had been imprisoned together so long, they all knew all of the jokes. Soon they all leaned out of the cell and used the numbers they had agreed on for the jokes.
"53!" yelled the guy in cell 383. Everyone laughs.
"91!" yelled the guy in cell 270. Everyone laughs.
"106!" yelled the guy in cell 310. Nobody laughs.
310 could never tell a joke says 401.
That is what Gupshup is without Goras. A mutual admiration society where everybody tells the same joke and everybody laughs for the 100th time.
Before 2001 World Affairs was a mutual masterbation society. A complete circle jerk. Somebody said "Jews are beasts.", everybody laughed and agreed.
The world is not this way.
If you want complete agreement, buy a mirror or a dog. If you want to confront the world, then value divergent opinions and use the internet to expand your horizons.
