It's our collective duty to rid the path of the gatekeepers, Zirks. I don't consider myself as having a best side or a worst ... just different intensities in the pursuit of and a propensity for the truth. This propensity does not allow me to make indictments on appearances alone (as such the case with some here). Exempli gratia, the appearance of Nexus as a power pyramid. This appearance has morphed into its own energy here at United People. And there has been little care given to the actual facts.
I, who is in a position to know a sufficient chunk of the facts of Nexus, had already explained here that Richard is important to Nexus for his technical expertise and that beyond that, he has no more power at Nexus than any other member - appearances notwithstanding. But my word is apparently not good enough for the poseurs here who insist that their perspective of a Nexus Kingdom with King Richard and Queen Celine is the correct one. Then when I asked for their evidence, all they could do was point to the Miserable User episode - which would not stand up as evidence in any court not staffed by kangaroos ... granted, it makes for appealing conjecture, but Chico himself admits the possibility of the evidence being erased before the trial, which leaves the case in no man's land of the
he says, he says - and he says, he says yet as more hyenas find their voice boxes around the mirage carcass. Instead of doing right by intellectual process and conceding that he blew it by acting on his own prejudices, Chico insists that there is no other possibility than that Richard is the King of Nexus, even citing his own tenure inside the MOD chamber as yielding evidence of this perspective. Well, what about my tenure there? Does that not count? From the pure origins of Nexus; through its Chico period (and he was the most beloved member there as judged by over 5400+ thanks); to its ongoing post-Chico habitation ... I've seen Nexus ride the rails by accommodating frail, foibled humans. And for accommodating humans in their fullest dimension, Nexus is being skewered on the appearances of not being planar across the board. To wit, the technical pyramid is being rolled and portrayed as a Trojan Horse ... with an implied belly full of evil Greeks (King Richard, Celine and the MODs) who serve themselves using the power pyramid design.
You see, Zirks, my integrity is being questioned directly and indirectly by those who were banned from Nexus and who have an axe to grind. They are the ones responsible for the Trojan Horse construction and for stuffing it with enemy Greeks. That is the sad reality of the anti-Nexus threads here on United People. There are no legitimate questions put forth by Andy that have not gone unanswered. Ditto for Chico.
Do not begrudge me my right of self-defense.
Are you serious, Zirks? Did you read the PM Andy sent me? Was that a sincere effort of a man in want of resolution? Or the taunt of a seasoned disruptor? Btw, how does one go about making peace with a proactive muckraker?
I'm here to establish truths ... let the truths establish the peace, e.g. by punting the phonies into orbit.
