I don’t Give A F*ck What You Think Makes It Work
THANK YOU for not fucking this group up (and why the fact I don’t give a fuck what you think* = makes it work)
The world – is quite frankly – lol
As someone who has made a pretty penny of odd words, I simply don’t have the ability to convey my thoughts
Hence:
‘Lol’
I digress
You see that’s are groups bigger than this one…
More popular than this one…
More successful than this one…
That’s for sure
But so far it’s remains day to day:
– spam free
– argument free
– dickhead free
AND it’s ALSO free
Which I think is pretty good tbh
We have worked hard to set both the tone and the ethos for the group
Yes some take advantage
Yes some are snakes
Yes some will only ever be here for their own good
Humans are humans and do human things
But as someone who has done this for a while, you have to if you run/lead anything is set the tone
What you do/don’t stand for
What you do/don’t belief
What you will/won’t do
And so forth
Do I have views or opinions that some of you would fucking hate?
Likely close to 100%
Equally there are some of yours that, quite frankly, might me a little meh
But do you see me wasting my time arguing with people online?
Do you see me calling people our and being deliberately polarising?
Na
I simply can’t be arsed
My opinions, thoughts and feelings are sovereign and my right to have
– as are yours –
But much like your ‘esoteric’ porn searches; they are for you to enjoy and keep to yourself most of the time
Hence why we have such a diverse group
There’s plenty of people who I am friends with/follow who I think talk utter shite in some matters
And that’s cool
Because I can separate the person from their beliefs and – believe it or not – I’m an adult and can have a good conversation without resorting to insults
#socontroversial eh?
I know some groups are a bit more of a free for all, pitch whatever you want, lots of drawn out posts, non stop engagement coloured boxes
Blah
Blah
Blah
We have been around for 5 or 6 years now (I can’t remember lol) and bar a few very very rare occasions I’ve shown up here every day
We will still be around for many, many years to come
Because we set the tone right
If you want to run a group, a movement, have a following – doesn’t really matter
Getting the who/what/why bit right, plus leading from the front with those in the forefront of your mind is key
That and understanding you are dealing with humans
And humans are who frankly ridiculous
(The sheer amount of effort and energy they expend to touch another human in the place where they wee from is quite hilarious when you think about it)
Most humans at their core are good
Some were bad and have now worked hard to be good
And some are just complete scum
It’s up to you to define who you want to work with and why, and you attract the right ones from the above medley by setting the tone and leading from the front
Ultimately I judge people on what they do and how they do it, not what they say (or type on social media)
Hence the * at the start:
I simply don’t give a fuck what you believe in as long as you do good work, be as decent a human being as you can and try not to harm others
Pretty fucking simple really
