Is Dominion still going?

THE place for your Sisters-related comments, questions and snippets of Sisters information. For those who do not know, The Sisters of Mercy are a rock'n'roll band. And a pop band. And an industrial groove machine. Or so they say. They make records. Lots of records, apparently. But not in your galaxy. They play concerts. Lots of concerts, actually. But you still cannot see them. So what's it all about, Alfie? This is one of the few tightly-moderated forums on Heartland, so please keep on-topic. All off-topic posts will either be moved or deleted. Chairman Bux is the editor and the editor's decision is final. Danke.

I don't seem to be able to (re-)subscribe ... is Pete (or someone else) still running it?

Cheers,

The last message was on 12th August. I assume it's still going.

I posted a message to the list.
(And the message has appeared on the list so at least confirms it's still working.)

I do believe that he's pretty much abandoned Dominion. I thought the list let people auto-subscribe anyway? See url below.

You sure you're not still subscribed? I don't know how to fix it, but you could ask Kieran? I assume you remember who he is? I don't really speak to him anymore but he might be able to help you?

That really is a terribly apt description.

I'm fine with this discussion (mostly, except for the parts where people slightly lack respect for each other).
After all, it's important to discuss these issues and hopefully, everybody got something new and something to learn from it.
I didn't partake, since I'm not involved in the issue directly, but still. Now I'm clearly better informed than before. So what.

Yes I can never tell the difference between [checks notes] people lying about a minority to stir up hate against them, and that minority asking if those people wouldn't mind terribly not doing that. It's all fascism, really, if you think about it. Or rather if you can afford not to.

Anyway, did anyone take my bait about the riff from "Black Sail" on the list? They did not. So much for *real* trolling... :von:

Yeah, that's why I put it in brackets, although as soon as the word "NAZI" comes in, it is clear to me that a serious disussion is no longer possible. Alleging some intended industrialised mass killing does mostly not meet the point in any dispute, whatever the level of emotional pain such discussions might touch upon. It won't help, just like generalised statements aginst whatever group of people. Beyond all that, I'm sure that :von: would simply not mention "those who are still undecided" if he did take "the p*ss". So what. It's impossible to convince everybody to look at the world from another point of view, whatever they might be missing.
