wtf, I know I just saw a sifttalk from you about logging in .. didn't I.
I wasn't taking a stab at you with my comment. I've had some problems with younger members who seem to take downvotes personally. Practically anyone who has a gold star can handle it pretty well. I get your jibs and find them enjoyable. Props about the going with your gut part. I hear you, sometimes I think too much sometimes I regret giving it a thumbs up.

I think you are over analyzing things there choggie, it's pretty hard to get a real insight into what was intended or not just from a posted video or its title. I think the best way vote is with your gut, at least that is what I do. If I watch something and my gut says downvote, so it goes. Sometimes I will extend and extra moment of thought to it if I am feeling all tingly but 99% of the time I vote with my gut feeling before I over think it.
and gorgonheap it doesn't bother me when you downvote videos because it helps identify what you do and don't like and there is nothing wrong with that. As for the fact some people give you crap over it, in my case please don't mistake a friendly poke with a stab in the eye. Ant however has several lacerations from my previous attempts but I have almost figured out the method to his madness so I put my sharp stick away.
It's 107 today here in NC

Ok, so it wasn't discarded due to negative votes? Do you want me to re-blog it?
In reply to your comment:
I'm not saying it means that much to me, and I don't even know how to say this the right way. I just didn't feel it should be self-discarded because it is found offensive and it is not becuase I don't care, but because I think everyone finds things tolerable on different levels and since we are a democracy here I figured I would leave it to the people to decide. I like to think I don't go around doing things to hurt people or piss people off and while I can understand the issue this revolves around (9/11) is a emotional one I still thought it deserved sifting.
I am sorry that if really upset you, I was upset myself to see how it affected you.

“Ok,I re-discarded it then. If this sift means that much to you, then please blog it back. I'm happy to let the controversy die with it since I really really hate being at odds with you over a video.
In reply to your comment:
“Didn't this already get discarded due to negative votes? I posted this knowing that it was going to be controversial but it wasn't done with the intent to offend people, if anything it was done to entice debate. Also as much as I don't want to offend anyone, I have a hard time self discarding a video because it did. If everyone were to discard a video that someone else found offensive there wouldn't be a lot of videos left on this sift.””

Ok, other than your not admitting the truth that the two porn shots are clearly violating posting guidelines, you're are being terribly naive about it's message. Or are you?
You have the two woman licking breasts early in the flick. porn. If you pause the video near the end and scroll slowly, you'll see: KKK superimposed w/ Iraqi prisoner and then Christ on the cross. Then Rocky holding a US flag, some poor kids running nude in what seems to be a war torn neighborhood, more Ab Graib shots and then a pornographic picture of a man and woman having sex. Clear picture of a woman's body coming down on a man's penis in intercourse... porn.
And as for the other....
You mean to tell me you cannot glean ANY message whatsoever in this video? I don't believe it. Ok then, what was your motivation for posting it? Art? Shockvalue? AntiAmerican? I can respect anti-war or anti-US government for the most part, but this video glorifies and celebrates the deaths of innocent thousands and screams that they deserved it. It's hateful propoganda poorly masked as art.
Hey, you may not have had the intentions for it, but it's painfully offensive. Wow, the word offensive for this is an understatement.
In reply to your comment:
I have no idea what the piece means, I just know it was meant as a statement about 9/11, albiet a warped statement. An I posted it knowing it was going to get some very strong reactions and most likely get downvoted into oblivion, but sometimes its better to sift and miss than to not sift at all.
In reply to your comment:
“Powerful, yes...powerfully offensive. This is horrid. And call it art if you like, it is porn. There are clear pornographic pictures in here, some flashed very quickly. Pause near the end and you'll see.
You posted this so explain to me the meaning of this piece? If I'm supposed to feel ill afterwards, then it's a success (and I'm not talking about the pornography)”
Hey, hon..I just blogged your Flesh sift. I'm not sure what your motivations were for posting it, but wow is it offensive. I had hoped you had read a couple of the comments by old members and had the courtesy and good taste to discard it. Maybe you just haven't had the time to check yet. In any case. It bothers me to feel I had to blog it, because you're not just some noob I don't care about.
Please discard it
Thanks for understanding.
In reply to your comment:
Thanks for the explanation even though I thought you went above and beyond what was required. I do appreciate it and can respect it.
Also I don't hate downvotes I just hate certain downvotes . But seriously though, everyone has the power to vote up or down and it is their right to choose which.
In reply to your comment:
“Ok I watched the whole thing. And after thinking about it I really can't upvote this. Powerful, maybe to some. But the whole sex thing was a major strike against it. I know you hate downvotes grspec. But in all honesty I can't in good conscience upvote this. ”
Heya.. mind if I get an invite to your collective?
