Bless his little heart. Just as you are. We all have a voice here. Thats why eoshd is great. My comments were to the individuals in a post that an admin deleted where an admin and others were defending the corporation of b&h after being found in violation of discrimination against women and people of color. That thread was deleted. I did not mean to offend anyone who was not part of that thread. I apologize to those who i offended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed_David Posted August 21, 2017 Author Share Posted August 21, 2017 Just now, User said: Let me know if I can get you a blanket and a cup of chai latte for all the suffering you've endured at the sight of watching other less fortunate than you. Stop fucking wining about it here and go and do something about it. Why? Did i ask for that? Should i instead let people defend corportions discriminate against people of color and women? Also using my real name is more courageous than hiding behind an anonymous name and swearing a lot. Because as you guys think im risking my job by my thoughts. Oh no- a production company would never hire someone who stands up publically online against domestic abuse and corporate discrimination against women and people of color. Did i mention i work primarily for liberal people who like that i am opinionated. You know other dps who are opinionated? A ton. Also i dont think admin jonpais should be liking posts that are full of swearing and hate towards another member of this forum.

User Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Yes you are asking for it. Methinks you actually love it. You are preaching to the choir here. If you need emotional support, there are groups. If not, maybe grab yourself anarchist tattoo and a warm bath... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Sewell Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 You may not agree with what Ed has to say, but he has been unfailingly polite in saying it. Perhaps you should dial back your aggression and disdain, as it is of no use to anyone and paints you as an unpleasant individual. And I agree, by the way, that administrators should abstain from approving posts containing aggression and profanity aimed at other users. jcs, ade towell, PannySVHS and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PannySVHS Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Ed , there is one main benefit to me in replying to your interesting post: to engage in a conversation with you. Your rarely reply to me. The only benefit in replying to your posts comes into doubt by lack of feedback from your side. If I directly adress guys like you or mercer or jonpais, it is because of interest in you guys and your opinions, for me it is not about writing for the internet. A human right is not a privilegue. The denial of human rights is an act of violence. One does not do human rights a favour by proclaiming them as privilegue. 3 million dollars for 1000 workers sounds little compensation. Should have been 30 million. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His unfailing politeness which has won your favour in this particular situation is a cheap mask that he employs when it serves him. I'll be sure to shed a tear when you are on the receiving end of one of his unwarranted hissy fits. As far as being unpleasant goes, I'm just calling it like I see it. Just as you and everyone here are. In fact, I'm very nice. Nice. Nice Nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Estrogens, xeno-estrogens, and endocrine disrupters are causing a variety of changes in all forms of life. From the NIH, this is no joke, brother: https://www.niehs.nih.gov/health/topics/agents/endocrine/index.cfm, and male T has been dropping steadily for the last 20 years: http://uk.reuters.com/article/health-testosterone-levels-dc-idUKKIM16976320061031 Thus, avoid plastics, make your own water if possible (via reverse osmosis or distillation followed by remineralization to bring up pH to 8+). Take DIM and eat associated foods to protect yourself: http://www.naturodoc.com/library/hormones/diindolymethane.htm. It's likely that sex cell cancers (e.g. prostate in men and breast in women) are promoted by endocrine disrupters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonpais Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 @Ed_David First of all, you started this thread with the express purpose of launching a personal attack against me, then go crying like a school girl just because I happen to approve of some of the comments questioning your motives. You're the one buying from B&H, not me, so like you said yourself, that does make you a hypocrite. @User sized you up pretty well when he remarked, His unfailing politeness which has won your favour in this particular situation is a cheap mask that he employs when it serves him.

I was planning to stay clear of this thread, but this is just an odd and awkward low blow. I actually don't get it. Am I missing something? Ebrahim was a fraud. Is Ed suggesting @kaylee is one? Kaylee brought up "under your real name", but in no way was she suggesting fraudulently posing as someone else, just pointing out that by using his full real name could come back to haunt him. Ed's line was desperate, and every bit as childish as Kaylee called him out for being. Point proved I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be sure to shed a tear when you are on the receiving end of one of his unwarranted hissy fits. Why don't you take your self righteous, self-pitying act somewhere else? Yea but I didn't address you. I don't honestly understand why you are a moderator here and yet are into using harassment against a user. Whether or not you agree with me, you should uphold a level of decency as a moderator of a forum. Calling me a girl is a form of immaturity. Andrew trusts you and depends on you for keeping the peace on this forum. Maybe he should reevaluate that. And how am I whining? I stated my belief that you should not be liking posts that encourage harassment and use profanity? Is that whining? How have I complained that, woe is me? Remember, you are the guy who defended a corporation for discriminating against women and black people, and then when I said it was against the law in American since the civil rights act of 1968, you deleted the POST! You deleted a post because it revealed something you may not want other people to see? Or what was your reasoning for deleting the post? Talk about whining. As to my ego, no I'm not here to stroke it entirely even though isn't that what we do when we post a video - we want constructive critism? But mostly on this stuff I'm here to defend my viewpoints, because unlike you User, or Jonesy Jones, or whomever the rest of you are, hiding behind your anonymonity - this is my real name - and my real name and actions have consequences, as you guys pointed out, in the real world for me. For you, User, you may as well be Ebrahim or gosh knows who else. And you can say whatever you want. If you want to actually have some clout, use your real name. And again, the end goal, which is fairly futile, is to do social activism online and in the real world - in places that don't always expect it - because if I get one person out there to start to think about what it means for a company to discriminate against women, that may be a good thing. And all that maybe worth it. But of course, I doubt it. And for the question on a the wide-angle adapter for a helious 52mm lens - why not use a full frame camera instead of a GH5? Or at least the speed booster ultra - and see where that takes you in widening the field of view. I know panasonic made wide-angle adapters back in the dvx100 era - maybe that could work as well.

That you yourself should welcome this is just another example of your extreme narcissism and short sightedness.

In all this it only and always comes back to YOU. YOU and your gigantic narcissistic ego. Light the way. Ugh.

No anonymity here. I go by Jonesy. Look up Jonesy Jones on imdb, I'm the first on the list. Same name as every other forum or website. I'd still love to hear your reasoning for calling Kaylee, Ebrahim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
