Well, I mean, people who felt that way must have felt seen because there was, it just wasn't blanket everybody or nobody. It's like there were rank and file members who were to blame for what happened. People like, it was easy, like, I think the committee knew they weren't doing a very good job so they were sensitive to internal criticism and it was like, if somebody on the inside was having some kind of issue with the way things were being done or what was being done they would hear those footsteps and they would get they would get upset and they would wonder like what do we do to have to put this fire out and that's what their chats were all day long of them fighting with each other on how to put fires out between their different factions of people in the rank rank and file people who wanted to constantly be involved with doing like demands of doing something they were a huge problem they're what led to the downfall because it was like it was an unwillingness to recognize that the group couldn't do anything at that moment because of how it was constituted there weren't enough people to do anything the only thing that should have been done was recruiting Everything had to be about getting more people because there were not enough people, there was not enough money. And that was in the thinking about it, you know, so much time was 16 months later, 15 months later. The main management problem was that the community, the committee didn't shut down any faction of people and say, that's not what this, that's not what the NJP is about. NJP is about doing this. So if you had, for instance, like here's the, you had people who looked at it the way I did, like this can't do anything until we have more people. We have to focus on recruitment and focus on refining the pool or the supporter groups into more of a real organization. Like there were those kinds of people. Then there were the people that wanted to just spend their every waking moment putting up stickers, handing out flyers, and doing little protests because it makes them feel good about themselves. And then you had other people that were like, this is a political party and we're going to start fielding candidates for elections. Like the committee would not take a stand on which one of those is the direction going forward. and they would not shut down the people that were against whatever direction, because that would mean losing, you would lose those factions. They would, you know, especially the activist group, the activist group are the worst, because if you're not doing what they want to do, they will immediately pick up and leave, and they're gone, and they hate you now. And that's always been a problem with this. And this is why NJP was a mistake because the NJP existed because that kind of person, which is that's the kind of person that Stryker is, that's the kind of person Warren wants to be. And they convinced Mike to indulge that kind of person. And that sort of ruined the whole thing because you cannot satisfy that group of people because the things that they want, like there are no results possible from those kind of bits of activism. It's just not there. So that was essentially the thing. It's like, yeah, yeah, it was management, but it was also like the people that were inside as rank and file making these demands that the committee felt like they had to, they were all members of different factions. And like they had to, you know, they felt they had to reconcile or keep the peace between these different factions of people, which translates to no problems ever solved. You're just making, this is like, this is the classic, like Warren telling whoever is asking whatever they needed to hear to stay on board and be happy. It was just totally, it just was never going to work. And if you're mad at me for calling out, it's like, well, you're mad at yourself because you're one of the people that caused, you know, like if you're like if you're Ambrose and you're starting pissing contests in the PPLG chats with other pool parlors who don't hang stickers. It's like, yes, you're to blame for this. You caused, you made the massive infight that made me mad, and I started taking this concern. It's like, hey, what are you going to do about these different factions? Why aren't you changing these factions? And then just adding to the friction that created the downfall. Because, eh, whatever. I'm just rambling.
