AIBU to be upset about a facebook group

[Scienceawarenaturalparent]

AIBU staying in a facebook group?

I have had a quick name change!

I'm a member of a large facebook group for natural parents who are also science aware. This group has been a fantastic resource and support network but its all gone wrong. The people running the page all have their own issues and are ganging up on other members for what seems like no reason.

I have thought long and hard about leaving the group because it seems like playground bullying but i just cant seem to do it.

They are great when you need your hand holding and will help you with any problem you could think of. They have a fantastic support network of Nutella addicts and people with difficulties like ADHD and depression I'm not sure there there is a better community.

BUT posting in it can be like stepping onto a nest of vipers. People having mental health problems can be kicked out for no good reason OR supported with people being sent round to check on them or taxis being called and paid for by the group when fleeing a husband. It just depends if you are in with the right crowd or not.

There are many LGBTQ members and there are a lot who are in relationships or who have experimented with eachother and this is causing tension on the group.

I cant seem to leave but i can't seem to stay and I don't even know these people in real life.

We're the only species that drinks G&T too... but fuck it.

Acidic Proteins are the worst!

Am I asleep? Or dead? What the fuck is going on?

"TornFromTheInside

We're the only species that drinks G&T too"
I demand published peer-reviewed evidence to support that

I found a jar of Nutella in my cupboard, does this mean I can join the cult?

peer review it with me

Pathetic. I'll assume you're taking tosh then and go back to the drinking games with my black lab

Polar bears don't like gin - true fact from nature. Please could we have vodka, baileys, or a nice pinot noir?

Hair of the dog?

Baileys is so bad for you, it's actually good

Peppermint I have never eaten Nutella either. I completely shocked someone with my recent confession that I had also never had chewing gum, so take from that what you wish.

Anyway I have not been on this group, despite doing all the cloth nappies, bf etc etc I never did any of them because of some great natural parenting thing it was just what I did and I never liked the whole smugness/preachiness etc that is often evident.

And anyway I did some sleep training, so I would be thrown out within a second anyway.

I however I could pretty much work out what is shared and the type of person who would really over share. (and shout down anyone who disagreed with them)

The risk of acidic animal proteins is that they are negatively charged ions. Since the dawn of the radio age, there have been literally billions of positive ions all around us, and now with the advent of mobile phones, wifi routers and similar devices, we are constantly being bombarded with positive ions. These ions are attracted the negative acidic animal proteins, tearing through the cells in our body, causing damage and increasing the risk of cancer.

This is why a plant-only diet, particularly one based on hemp oil which contains a superfluity of positive ions, is the smart choice for the ion-rich world we live in today.

I thought Ion was an energy provider?

And they are doing what to our cows now?

I am sure Caitlyn has some good points, but I am really sorry but I don't actually understand a word.

Is Caitlyn putting forward this view, or pasting it from the cult HQ?

I'd just like to clarify this before I taunt her with a Toblerone

CaitlynsCat, if we were to wear some sort of hazmat suit made of magnets (and possibly Nutella shoes) would that help in any way?

I'm an all-science natural-aware parent.

Hail Seitan.

I think she's pasting the nonsense put forward by the cult (rather than her own views) but I could be gravely mistaken.

🙃🙃🙃 haven’t a fucking clue what’s going on here but it’s fab!

I want to join the —cult— Facebook group!

FlyingElbows, I have an all-natural magnet-based waterfall that can help shield you from dangerous positive ions. Join my group, hun, and I can share more.

It cured my friend's son's cystic fibrosis, it's just amazing.

I feel like I've entered another dimension.
Now milk causes cancer 🤔. What the fuck is going on.
Where is OP? Do you think they've tracked her down? 😱

I'm going to nominate this thread for classics. 😂

The red squirrel has been seen as far afield as Shrewsbury.

The weather is particularly inclement for the time of year.
