Can confirm. Met one at the VA2A rally. Asked if she had come here, she said she was on 4/pol/ & 8ch but made a face about 8kun, it was a face of disgust and horror, which kind of struck me considering the state of 4/pol/ but whatever.
I don't dispute that quality diggers left, probably stayed on twatter and just pop in now and then here. The movement needs all kinds, in many places, doing many things with many people. That's how it grows. And just like the artificial day/night shift division, and the generational division, the here/twatter division is also artificial and self-limiting - instead of positive feedback loop and force multiplier, there is pettiness. With that said, there are a lot of pricks in both places with think skin, drama-prone, full of ego and lacking in humility and very, very chatty. Humanity in general.
It's really unfortunate, though, because working together and pooling our skills, talents, abilities and ideas, we can overcome the monsters a lot better. But of course the monsters want us divided into little groups and identities all fighting each other, so we don't do that.
My retired mom lurks here and has been with us from pretty close to the beginning. It's certainly not for everyone, and that's fine. It always cracks me up that some don't realize how many people of differing backgrounds both lurk and participate here. My mom reports what we find to a lot of people in her area, and now they are starting to come to her with questions. Those seeds she planted have sprouted and are growing nicely.
