You call yourselves III?
You claim to have the backs of your fellow Patriots when SHTF?
You claim you will protect your Tribe in bloody violence?
For a few of the "Elders" in the III community, you have watched a few people deliberately try to sabotage genuine, strategic and tangible work of your fellow III Patriots, and attack the III as a group. You have watched people like Justin (His New Holiness Arctic Patriot) and MBV post and comment obvious lies and unsupported vile assertions, and not a peep.
More than 40 III Patriots pooled together to build something in the III name - how many of you "Elders", whether bloggers or merely respected Commenters, whether III or merely "Patriots" have written a single word to defend your own, or at least demand evidence of assertions? How many of you have policed your own? How many of you have publicly demanded that those making assertions show their math? How many of you have publicly shunned the attackers, their facilitators and puppeteers?
Don't bother writing about any of it now. Every single person in this "Community" has revealed himself in these last weeks, and you can bet people have taken notes. This has nothing to do with Kerodin - this has to do with 40+ III Patriots who found themselves standing alone on the Green, under fire that had the potential of real-world harm, without a single "Elder" daring to speak out.
Bill Nye refuses the III tags, and he has posted more to defend your fellow III Patriots and reveal truth than many who wear the patches and fly the flags and banners. And for the very few others who are not among the 40+ who did speak up, I thank you. I saw how you were shouted down by strawman arguments and gratuitous assertions, and the "Elders" were there in silence.
"Elders": Think about that the next time you write about covering your fellow Patriots in a real SHTF world.
Kerodin
