SHMOOZEZONE ARCHIVE

When Multiply went belly-up, Shmoozezone was created, to be a member-run alternative. In the beginning it seemed promising, despite the stupid name it was given. It originally had the name Civitar, implying civic discourse. To schmooze does not have the same atmosphere.

As time went on, from 2012 to the present, it became increasingly obvious that one administrator had odd prejudices, leaning toward white supremacy, right-wing politics, Islamiphobia, and intolerance of any view to the contrary.

Anticipating the impending uselessness and likely demise of S-Zone, I have collected over 8 years worth of my blogs, and made them available below, each in PDF format.
