That is so right Rich, so right.
However these loud mouths are really a minority with loud mouths and the corrupt media gives them the spotlight so many are being deceived, misled, lied too, and brain washed because your youth are no longer trained and taught how to think and even think objectively. So bow to the state and praise big brother is the mind set they are being indoctrinated to. I see samplings of this here on UHH by members who are old enough to know better but when looking at their home state, well, that says it all. And it has been mentioned on UHH before in reply's to others comments, not mine.
Luckily my middle son's wife is home schooling their 6 kids and my oldest son, who has my oldest grandson, being 11. They finally pulled him from public school and are looking to find something else.
Getting back to this original thread.
I have seen anything that Jim should be upset about but then I could have missed it .
This is an example of where the majority, us who support him, are trying save a member who fell victim to the ugly side.
We ALL urgently encourage Jim to stay with us. Not because we like his images, which we do, BUT because he needs to stand firm against critical reply's.
Well this is my story for now. I need to gt out again and make another road trip.
We all need to support each other with positive encouragements.

You just have to look closely and ferret out the real motivations behind any “criticism”.

Just wondering, but how has these comments about Jim’s photography become political commentary?

Yeah, I don't get it. I'm not a Maga person, they would describe me as " woke"; but I wake up every day as they do and I truly enjoy and appreciate Jim's work. I think a lot of it has a whimsical, almost magical quality.
Please don't leave, Jim.

It is indeed a privilege to see your work, no matter when the photos were taken. Takes me back to a younger time when I was shooting film. Keep it up. Don't let the tail wag the dog.

To put things in a different perspective, I think the negative comments are out of pure jealousy instead of appreciation for your contributions. When I was working as an electrician, I hated to see sloppy work by others because it made everyone look bad. When anyone took pride in their work and did their best some would always complain that it made everyone else look bad. I can see you take pride in your work just as much as I did in mine.
Please don't go, stay and give the rest of us a standard to meet in what we do.

I was responding to others comments. Not political.
We all appreciate Jim's posts and that is all it should be !
BUT !!!! As things go here on the UHH site, shit seems to bubble up and certain things I will respond too Knowing it will bring a backlash, so what.
I stand for Jim. End of story.

I have not seen any negative comments concerning your posts Jim but if you say so there must have been some.
All that I can say is that I enjoyed your posts very much and would like to see you stay and continue to post. Don't let the trolls get the best of you.

I look forward to seeing your work as much as anything and more than most. Very sorry to hear you're leaving. I hope you change your mind.

There are too many of these butt heads telling everyone what is this and what is that and getting their way cause nobody has the "ya-ya's" to tell them exactly where to get off, so they cave in to them. Now i dont know about you, but i take my freedoms very serious. Your images have always been within the guidelines of UH. And as long as you don't get a "naught naughty" note from the admin, I'd keep posting your images. As for the haters on UH, I'll tell them the same thing I tell any hater, "kiss my motherf-n a-s if you think for one stinking second your gonna tell me what I can or can't like, and besides, your woman there looks like a hooker".

Please don't quit. I don't comment often but I enjoy the view; they're all beautiful photos and beautiful young women. Thank you.

UHH used to be a great space; veterans willingly helped newbies (today newbies--if they even come here--are humiliated and made to feel unwelcomed). I liked the old UHH; I rarely come here now.
