[identity profile] annabellelaw.livejournal.com posting in [community profile] multiplicity_archives
I'm kind of two people sharing the same body. A division of mind, two personalities with some shared memories.
I read some posts in this community & go "Yes... that sounds familiar. I'm glad I'm not alone."
I read some posts and go "Riiight... nutter, nut-ter. Notjob"
This place occasionally makes me feel sane because I read things from literate inteligent people who just happen to be sharing a body with others. Occasionally it makes me feel sane because I read posts and realise that I'm a healty sane multiple, not insane like the poster.

I'll not single out any individuals (forgive the pun) but the nut-job posts I read usually ... heck. I'm not going to give examples. I think you know which ones I'm refering to.

Like you did recently? *grinz* How's that thread coming along by the way? ;)

Anyway, there are ways to do it which are likely to cause change in the behavior, and there are ways to do it which show the person in more interested in validating themselves than effect actual change. *shrugs* Seems to be it's own sort of bullshit.

I make sense? I'm surprised. *grins* Personally, if it's getting to your stomach, I'd say your policy sounds like a good plan.

There are ways to get people to reconsider their assumptions, but the best methods are indirect.

I said my piece. We have enough people putting words in our mouth in this community that sometimes it's better to just drop the topic. Especially since we weren't talking to you in the first place and plenty was said for you to get your answer.

Actually, it didn't answer my questions, and I explained why. If you felt that words were put in your mouth, I'm perfectly willing to listen. I told you when I felt that way, I'd hardly find it inappropriate for you to do the same.

Anyway, going back to the thread at hand, I maintain that in certain contexts, it's it's own form of bs. Don't get me wrong, draw boundaries all you want. I don't feel a need to follow them, I've got my own to worry about. The problem I have is that, on occasion, I notice people using it as a distraction from their own issues. That can cause it's own problems for the system in question if that attidude and behavior becomes habit.
