Here's why I will not support this healer strike.

Oh yes, they are. Pick your way through the strike thread. I dared to mention recently that I actually find I need to heal in DF dungeons, and the first response "liked" by almost 20 people was just trying to insult and belittle me by saying I must be a bad healer (which doesn't even make any sense given the context of the echo chamber's own arguments...). It's very revealing the kind of toxic people are pushing the strike, and if you're someone who likes healing and is willing to speak up about it, you definitely see the cabal ganging up on people.

And the pages upon pages of people calling us everything from casual idiots who need to do savage to toxic raiders who want to exclude the casuals not to mention the unhinged fanboy that decided to stalk all our logs to create a spreadsheet for the content creators to use and the amount of vitriol directed towards Gemina including people who are publicly posting and laughing at her logs doesn’t count

You certainly have a very one sided view of the problems here. There definitely seems to be a strong element of “strikers you need to police the entirety of your sides arguments” but then when someone opposes the strike and goes unhinged it’s “hey man that’s their opinion”

And here's the perfect example of someone being dismissive, one-sided, and ironically being toxic:

Have you seen the majority of the people in the healer thread. They are horrible people who are nasty, dismiss others opinions and make personal attacks for no reason. You can't have a different opinion in there without being attacked.

I don't think the people who are in the healer strike represent our positive, helpful and respectful community, and they should be ignored.

If people didn't have double standards, they'd have no standards at all.
