I mean you *did* say, "as long as we get new members it will be okay", so it's not really putting words in your mouth. Now, don't get me wrong, I'm not saying I don't have confidence in us or that it won't be okay, I'm just saying that that isn't the only prerequisite for it to be okay. We need to actively think about how to both increase retention rates and gain new members. @Wood-Ape - OK/MN

Net increase in time meaning it "WILL BE" okay does not mean "ideal." Jeez you can really tell you were raised by non English speakers.

He’s saying it will be okay. He never said ideal Jacob

Maybe you just have a lower standard for "okay" then

Okay=/=ideal

More English lessons : "Okay" =/= "wonderful"

We just need something really big to happen honestly. The more intolerable things the left does to shift its own audience to the right the more apps we’ll get

Things are quite far from ideal

I see the point you’re making is you would prefer ideal over accepting “okay”

Survival = okay. Thriving = good. Winning = ideal.

I think slow and steady is a bit better, growing too much too fast could be a fatal problem for our organization.

Ya, I get that, it's just that my standard for "okay" is more than "barely scraping by". I don't think we should ever tell ourselves it's "okay" to lose members at high rates. I get that you're just trying to be optimistic. I'm not trying to be pessimistic either, I'm just saying that we should hold ourselves to a higher standard for what is "okay".

I really don't think this is something to get mad over.

You’re not being pessimistic

Just unrealistic

All I'm saying is that for me "okay" includes having a good retention rate. That's literally all it is.

And nowhere did I say net increase in membership was "the only prerequisite for it to be okay". a method =/= only method.
An I.E. made of 100 Millionaires would be probably more powerful than 1,000 normal people. But that is an unlikely and outlandish scenario.

I remember much worse retention rates

I remember that, too, which is why I'm really not trying to be pessimistic. I fully understand that we're improving.

@Jacob Okay I will amend my original sentiment to fit Jacob's preferences "man we randomly lost two members I used to talk to, really sucks, everything sucks, we will never win blaclblackblackpill" 😒

There’s no disagreement here. @Wood-Ape - OK/MN was trying to be optimistic, @Jacob was trying to push for a tone of higher standards, unrealistic as it may be

uff da...

Okay, that's just being intentionally disingenuous. I never even said our current situation is even bad necessarily. I just said that our standard for what is acceptable should include retaining members.

That's literally all I said.

"having some standards" does not equal "blackpill"

@Jacob if you’re addressing someone directly you should @ them

@VinceChaos I think it's some antfia rag but they had ironic winks toward us. I just don't think they see what happens with exposure to truth. Whites are waking up.

I'm ready to drop it.

Won't comment on it again.

Good

@PatrickAZ ha! They sound dumb. Sounds like don’t counter them then. Let our enemies make mistakes
