@umikathryn It's starting to get weird, and will just get weirder.... Wish I couldn't count on there always being people out there who will take something too far to make a buck or tell people what to think.

If you've ever gardened you see this effect constantly. Getting the best yields is all about putting your plants through manageable stress. Hardening seedlings before planting, snipping off inefficiently positioned leaves that don't get enough light, creating structure for how they grow, etc.

There does seem to be a universal principle in life that in some ways reflects Newton's 3rd law. Similarly with things that feel good in the short term harm you in the long term and vice versa. I think this is why people who are contrarian (not in an asinine way but a lifestyle way) or seek manageable discomfort experience a lot more growth in life.

I don't know who needs to hear this but your ability to create the reality that you want is directly determined by your willingness to experience its opposite. Saving money will have you feeling broke while it's actually making you rich. Setting boundaries will have you feeling alone while you're creating new healthy relationships in your life. Digging up your trauma will have you feeling broken while it's actually healing you. Working out has you feeling weak while its really making you strong. Learning something new makes you feel dumb while it's making you more intelligent. Your ability to attain the thing that you want is directly correlated with how willing you are to experience its opposite. You have to be ok with being uncomfortable to truly achieve success! You got this

@Adino1298824 @markgadala No but you seem convinced that inciting violence against them is the appropriate help...?
English
@kukewilly @markgadala Have you really been trained and conditioned to believe that a woman having a mental breakdown and then cutting off tits, taking HRT and becoming a tiny anorexic man is not mental illness?
English
@Adino1298824 @markgadala The mental illness is the pushing, and that manifests in all sorts of ways. IMO you both have the same problem, and it perpetuates a cycle of hate -> violence -> loss -> indoctrination.
English
Your reply ("you're not in the same group") actually proved my point rather than refutes it. Different tribes do ostracize outsiders who threaten their sacred values; that's exactly how tribal boundaries are maintained. One side calls it "punching up" or "accountability." The other calls it "cancel culture." Biologically and historically, it's the same tool.
It's not "horrible bullying by adults acting like children." It's humans doing what humans (and every other social group) have always done when the ingroup senses a threat.
They aren't afraid. They live in their own little gated bubble and enjoy trying to push the minority mental illness on the masses.
English
@Adino1298824 @markgadala The most we can/should hope for, is that we can maintain the bear minimum social contract necessary to sustain an economy by trading labor, goods, and services. Everything else is just fear/hate
English
What you just said is why people are scared of you and want to suppress your voice. I don't want to be a part of your social structure. I don't want to be a part of theirs either. But that doesn't make a difference to either of you now does it? The real damage starts once people start believing it's possible for everyone to believe the same thing and live the same way.
English
You're not in the same social group. I think what you mean is the poster is afraid of their ideology spreading so they are trying to destroy it with shame and implied violence. It will have the opposite effect. Pretty simple to understand the effects if you consider how it makes you feel when a leftist shames/attacks your ideology. Do you change? Basic perspective reorientation...
English
@kukewilly @markgadala This isn't bullying, this is social ostracism. Ritualized social expulsion. It is found in all social groups of the animal kingdom and it is designed to keep the group/tribe strong and healthy.
English
@markgadala People are horrible. A bunch of apparent adults bullying someone like children over a movie they won't even watch

@PatriotTanker Ah good on you. Seems like you know what you're doing. The robotic TS are awesome. Enjoy retirement!
English
@kukewilly I retired around 3 yrs ago. Yes, all of my radios are 5 watts. It’s a combination of both flat land and steep canyons. When I was working in town I would use the network base station, but, I used the robotic S6 for most layout work due to tighter elevations required.
English
A Trimble R10 GNSS base station. The base station is static and I would have another R10 as the rover. It’s referred to as RTK or real time kinematic. The base station would’ve let you know where you are in the world based upon the location of the static base station.
English
@PatriotTanker Nice nice. I wonder have you tried a 5 watt external radio? Might be able to get away with 1 base. but you're probably getting close to max range at 36 square km. Looks like you live somewhere with pretty flat topography though.
