@Dusty This is what entitlement looks like, folks.
Seriously. If you think blaming the ARRL for being up against a corrupt and entrenched monopoly makes sense, you’re a fool. I’m sorry to be blunt, but there it is.
Representation is not a zero-sum game where you get exactly what you pay for. This is why our democracy has come so close to failing-and you’re part of the reason why.
Yes, I just said that. Think very carefully before you reply, please. For all of our sakes.
@w0odl Unfortunately, I can’t. If someone wants to treat the ARRL as the inept perpetrator of our current state I can’t stop them, but I WILL say it’s classic victim-blaming.
I AM being respectful. I have attacked no one based upon who they are, and the person claiming I was is wrong.I won’t sit around and let people attack the only collective voice we have on false pretense-if that offends you, that’s a YOU problem.
ARRL is our voice, and a reflection of our commitment to our hobby.

Personal attacks. That’s the end of the conversation for me.
And threats as well with the “think carefully before you reply”. Great way to have a conversation.
Let’s take this down a notch. Please refer to rule number 1
Be respectful of others
While not a mod of mastodon.radio, I want this to be civil.

“I AM being respectful.”
It’s just not the case. It’s ok to voice an opinion but we can do so in a manner that doesn’t attack other people, and you did in my opinion.
“This is why our democracy has come so close to failing-and you’re part of the reason why.

That’s a threat.
