People don't have to suffer abuse to interact on Facebook. I check in every day to make sure no bullshit is afoot, but otherwise there's no need to post. I gave way too many hours to the BBS only to get stomped on and shit on repeatedly by asshole users.
Recently I saw how liberty type people treat one another in practice, more succinctly and explicitly than ever before.
I have little interest in further contact beyond the people I already know and like. My beliefs in freedom and liberty are stronger than ever, but my faith in the individuals themselves has been utterly fucking destroyed, with exceptions.
You can't. Trust. People. You can't rely on other people's commitments. I can't believe I had to learn that lesson again at THIS point in my life.
