There was no way that I was trying to offend. If Mea Maxima Culpa doesnt
help, I don't know what will. Cultish slurs exist against me you and anybody
who edits. I am not saying that they exist elsewhere by critics of
wikipedia. When I started the paragraph I said that it resembled a closed
marxist-leninist-trotskyist-4I cabal than a cult.
I even retracted my statement on "count"
If I could strike them out from wkienmail I would.
I am truly sorry you were upset/grated teeth/kicked the sofa - I am sorry
And I am sorry to all who come after etc.... But please making wikipedia
Better is actually making things work.
"Offended" is not the way I would describe my reaction. I have no doubt
that these kinds of discussions are happening outside of WP, including
on sites where slurs are more assuredly intended. It's part of the
territory of being big. Arguiing with these people can be a tremendous
waste of time.
