Inasmuch as you as a first generation former member don't seem to appreciate a second generation former member insinuating that all first generation are monsters (which, I might add, my post was nothing of the sort & if that's what you read into it that's entirely your prerogative),
by the same token, would it not be safe to assume that ex-family members (of either generation) do not appreciate the innocuous stream of narrative that continues to bring up ad nauseum the insinuation that in one way or the other they are still connected to the group.
What would it take? Completely dismanteling Love's Bridge, packing it up and going home wilst leaving the orphans and street kids of Perm to fend for themselves in order for the accusers to feel content?
And if someone were to point the finger at you and say that you were an abuser in the Family, and you straightforwardly deny it and explain why it is not possible, and yet, the absurd accusations continue by people who didn't even know you, what then?
And as for this being an issue of the generations: I dare say my ire would by greatly less if the same amount of energy and focus were produced by the first generation ex-members on this site towards, say, exposing any one of the hundreds of actual Family fronts registered with FCD AND run by the victimisers, NOT THE VICTIMS. Where are the posts denouncing (or exposing) any one of those projects?
If people (and by "people" I mean those who continue to harp on the subject of Love's Bridge) have their primary motives enveloped in truth and justice and exposing the Family, why is it that Love's Bridge continues to receive unwarranted scrutiny & the masses are silent towards those who should be highlighted and brought to justice?
Until now, I have never had issues with those of the first generation. But this scenario makes me sick and has me yelling, "go pick on someone your own age" -- and I might add, "someone that rightfully deserves it".
