So Charliko, moshe does have a point you say? Which one would that be? That I should have been on birth control and not gotten impregnated, or that I should name my child after the Malvinas and not bother with posting about this subject here on JWN? Oh wait, let me scroll down a little. So I am possibly a man because I do not openly wail on this forum about being without a man to raise my baby, and show concern over the impending arrival. My command of English makes me suspect, as well as the times that I post. Let the kangaroo court now be in session!
When I started the “Disfellowshipped” thread, I made a simple introduction explaining that I was newly disfellowshipped and that I wanted to get reinstated in order to repair some family relations before going to the USA for grad studies. Besides my username and my slogan at the bottom of my posting, I did not come in here barreling in screaming about the Malvinas. A few people got the reference, and I was directed toward this thread for discussion about that. Further in the “Disfellowshipped” thread, I was asked to reveal more about myself. Despite initial reluctance, I told you in confidence what my current situation is. Some people could not understand why I would try for reinstatement, and so additional information was added (despite my reluctance). The conversation stayed civil on the “Disfellowshipped” thread with many pleasant remarks given. I appreciated them.
The Malvinas discussion also got off to constructive start. Though I expressed my opinion on the Malvinas, it was not done too forcefully and I acknowledged the islanders’ rights and wishes, and tried to set out terms for a diplomatic solution. Several posters (cofty, cedars, and besty) countered with their own feelings, and they articulated the British position quite well. The presence of the islanders on the Malvinas is definitely an issue which should be taken into effect, and I have to agree with that. An Argentine voice was asked for, and I obliged. No hurt feelings on both sides.
However, you decided you were going to open up wiki articles and throw an encyclopedia at my head, using half-baked logic about how Britain had always had legal claim to the islands despite a succession of Argentine governors in the 1820s. When I countered with that, you tried to insist that they really weren’t Argentine agents at all, even though they accepted their commission as Argentine governors in the islands. Like a victorious kid leading a gang, you danced and shouted about how I just wasn’t getting it, and did not want to listen. That’s when this conversation got nasty and personal.
There is and can be no excuse for mocking and humiliating someone because they are disfellowshipped and pregnant. This wasn’t information I was quite ready to reveal, but I was encouraged to do so. My mistake. I never thought that this information would so quickly be used against me in a completely different thread about the Malvinas. The actual issues weren’t being discussed anymore, instead it was all about me. You played a huge part in that, Charliko. A moderator gets involved and you immediately shoot off a PM to her, no doubt to clear your own name and make the case that I am a troll or not who I say I am. It’s amusing to see the rats scamper when someone comes around that can actually do something about it. You are still stuck in your conspiracy theories about me. Am I that interesting for making a few remarks about the Malvinas that you would hear at almost any Argentine dinner table? Why the constant forced explanations when someone posts something sympathetic to me? I seem to be a new hobby for you, when all I did was give some personal information I now regret giving in the first place, and my opinions about the sovereignty of the islands. I just don’t get your level of negativity as much as I abhor moshe’s sexist and crude comments to me. As much as you do not want to make me the victim, you are doing just that.
