[Buddha-l] Re: Censorship ...

[jkirk]

Since only some of the list members received the off-list allegations, or 
whatever they were, and the rest of us did not, it might be more beneficial 
to list discourse if discussion of off-list communications were kept off 
list.
I for one have no idea what you are talking about here. I kept reading 
through to the end, in the hope that some clarity would present itself, but 
none did.

Buddha-l members,

I am critical of some dynamics within the alleged censorship here.

First, several have commented as if censorship was being imposed instead of 
voluntary. I presume that these others received the same off-list allegation 
that I did. That notice was precise yet it did result in deceptions. Thus, 
the note could be a sample of unskillful speech, either in the writing or in 
the reading.

Second, the note took a ((s(he))it) perspective which, as is usually the 
case, was manipulative or directive. Yes, there were 'I-statements' 
interspersed but clearly the intent was to mobilize others into a 
specifically personal fantasy. Again, it seemed unwholesome and has bred 
illusions..........
