TLDR: I drank the KoolAid then did as much as I could to convince others drink the KoolAid. Now I'm shocked that we were all poisoned.

Yeah that is part of the reason non-Americans are not visiting the US. We assume that what we have said has been recorded and flagged at some point.

We all know that with boyfriends like that, if one his friends did get her, he'd be calling her names and forgiving his friend.

Infatuation is not love. If you want a long term relationship or a life partner or parent for your children, learn the difference. If within a short period of time you think you've met your perfect mate, SLOW down until you can see them as a real person complete with imperfections, and only then decide how much space they should occupy in your life. If everyone you know doesn't think they are a good match, they might be right and you might be blinkered. Do your due diligence - especially before you create any children who have to deal with your fallout.

I'd agree that it peaked a long time ago. I joined in 2008 or so because my teenage sons had joined. We didn't know each other's IDs, I wanted to know what they were interested in and found a couple communities I liked for myself. Every year it got less inclusive and the toxicity that was contained to some communities started to spill over. I had already left when the corporatization started in earnest.

That photo is the best you ever get. Or maybe a photo with snow is a bit better. The outside is gorgeous. The inside is a complete waste of time and money as it wasn't finished. It was a vanity project not a real castle.
