For years I thought (because I was told) that my views are too radical and far-right - that I should follow more of what others think - and that I should work more to "fit in". This place, and all of you, have shown me the absolute opposite is true: that, in fact, I am NOT alone, and there are many many others who feel as I do.

Some of us live more isolated lives than others for all kinds of reasons: maybe it's physical isolation, or, like in my case, more of a social isolation. I think we all need to remember we are not alone in this. A lot of us are scared to let our real feelings about things show. This place, and all of you, have given me more confidence to show my feelings in situations when I thought it was appropriate, and doing so have massively paid off much more than it has fizzled.

So thank you - to all of you. We clearly have a long war to fight here, but I appreciate knowing I am not alone.

There are so many of us. Our problem is we have nowhere to openly discuss our views. I bet there's way more than we even know. Most people just keep quiet and go along. Which is the most dangerous thing anyone can do. Something needs to happen that brings us all out of the woodwork and find a place to organize. Bc until we do that, were going to lose. And are losing.

you can openly discuss your views anywhere you like. Don't be a pussy

A place where everyone knows about? A place that people actually know about and visit? An open forum for the masses? Don't be daft. If we could take all the information gleaned on this site and were capable of disseminating the truth widely so that regular, ignorant people could understand it, consume it, we'd have a real platform.

But we don't have that. We don't have a place where we can win people over. Either one at a time or a thousand.

I'm not a pussy, you're just ignorant to what its going to take to turn the tide in our favor.

I meant in real life not online. I may have assumed that you did too
