Today I decided to google my group's title to see what people have been writing about it. Truthfully there was not much, but I did happen to see this on a blog:
I just removed a girl I went to high school with from my Facebook because she joined the group Stop Barack Obama: (one million strong against communism). I’ve never removed anyone before, and I’m all for celebrating differing political viewpoints, but flat-out ignorance is another thing all together. Communism? How can she not realize joining that group simply reveals her as an elitist idiot?
The blog author is unknown to me, but whomever it may be is very much, indeed, a pinhead.
To this anonymous author:
I write this in defense of your high school classmate. How interesting of you to say "I'm all for celebrating differing political viewpoints" when that statement, clearly, is an untruth. You are just so good for 'defriending' your classmate. Now why should I care?
Well, you seem to think my group is "flat-out ignorance" and its members are "elitist idiot[s]." I will bet that you took one glance at the group title and picture and came to a conclusion from there. Perhaps you should try and read the description and see where we stand, unless, of course, you cannot handle the truth.
You are in no way accepting or tolerant of all political views if you removed your friend and labeled her as an elitist. And maybe you are accepting and tolerant of other political views; only the ones that are most like yours.
G'day.
