The way I see it, all of this back and forth nonsense creates a much-needed balance. If the minorities didn’t exist, then everyone would be the same and there would never be any conflicts, and those who would normally reside in the majority group of the world would have no one to come down upon. A real utopia that would be… unfortunately, Utopia will never exist as long as there are different ways of looking at the world, and I personally have to say, “Thank God for that.”

I’m not saying that Katja is right or wrong in her beliefs… as a matter of fact, I couldn’t care less about anyone else’s beliefs but my own, and I’d hope that she would mind her own about mine as well… but if she didn’t, again, I really couldn’t care less. I would just put her on mute and call it a day if it bugged me that much (which nothing ever does because I’m very open minded towards others). I think that one should be allowed to believe whatever they want without other people coming down on them when its not their place, because I would expect the same respect back. For everyone involved, such as those that own the island and what not, I’m sure you had your reasons since it was your land or your group or blah blah blah, and that’s fine. I can completely understand that. Free speech doesn’t always exist in your neighbor’s backyard.

There’s so much controversy in this story that I don’t even know where to begin. All I know is that the ignorant majority will eventually squash all of the minorities, then the manipulative, two-faced members of the would-be majority would turn the tables on everyone else in order to create a new conflict since they already squashed everything else they used to argue about, and the days of free speech are over, Second Life will vanish from the face of the Earth, and we will all be forced to live our Real Life in fear of being accused of DoubleThink and talking in NewSpeak, because I can guarantee you that the majority doesn’t really know what they are asking for when they want the minorities to disappear. (Run-on sentence is for effect)

I do not live in fear of anything, except the loss of my right and everyone else’s right to free speech. So please, everyone, continue battling out these silly battles until the universe collapses upon itself… as long as someone hates someone else for something, whether it be a minority hating a group of people for whatever stereotypical reason they may have or the majority hating the minority for hating a stereotype, that means my rights and everyone else’s rights to free speech will continue to survive.

Now, back to your regularly scheduled flaming session.

Linden Labs needs to stop listening to majoritarian tyranny and respect the rights of the unpopular minorities. This is supposedly a medium where people can express themselves, but when you add in all these limp-wristed half-assed rules all you get is a pointless, watered-down GAME when you could have a WORLD.

Read “On Liberty” by J.S. Mill. THIS IS THE PHILOSOPHY SECOND LIFE SHOULD BE IN ACCORD WITH.

I think this all can be settled on whether or not she’s run off a bridge by a 1974 Dodge Monaco.

Any way. I do have to say that, despite me being not Jewish, that the majority of Jews are far more descent people than you . In fact, the majority of people are far more descent than you.

Thank you, have a nice day.

Whether or not she was a nazi doesn’t matter, you don’t have to be a KKK member to be a black hater either.

And I love how katja goes “I have better things to do than to listen to some 14 year old cry about something he knows nothing about.” We know about the holocaust because of history books (and no you worthless waste of carbon, not all history books or anti-nazi agenda material is by jews.)

Dominik, thank you for your post and IM regarding the article. I have checked with Katja and she confirms that she was born in Romania but is a German Citizen. So, the original “German Designer” title is correct.

Cheers,
Neal

Is it worse that I wont admit that Katja is a Nazi, or that you wont admit that she isnt? It’s the same thing. People are as you see them, no one is universally likeable, and no one is universally hateable. What I mean is everyone’s views are subjective, so I’ll only trust my own before I smear someone’s Second Life.
