As someone who sees what they post, I know that's not a rumor... it's a flat out lie. The updates they're posting on their private pages are the same ones going out to the public. The only warnings they are posting are for those on their friends lists who might cause undue problems in the comments, and the repercussion would be that they unfriend/block someone, which is their right to do on their personal pages.And yet if the rumors painted the SCV in a positive light, or were bad rumors about the people who caused this mess in government, I have the feeling you'd be doing cartwheels and jumping with joy.
Too bad you missed my original point, that the existence of these rumors originating on the pro-Confederate/Forrest side of the farce is a concerning development, not the rumor itself. But where there's smoke there's fire, especially when there's such a large amount of anger growing at the SCV by large numbers of folks dedicated to preserving Confederate history and heritage.
I mean, when the CiC, most recent Past-CiC who's head of the mess have to literally post warnings and threats at anyone who questions them before any news release, something is rotten. (But don't take my word for it, look for it on Facebook, they're doing this when the only ones seeing the updates is on the friends list of they're personal profiles, and that ain't no rumor.)
Just because the rumors originate from sources that claim to be pro-Confederate/pro-Forrest doesn't mean they don't have personal grudges against SCV leadership that override whatever care for their heritage & the history they may have... and the fact that rumors & flat out falsehoods are causing so many to get in a frenzy only proves the natural damage that such things do. That's why real Southern gentlemen don't engage in spreading them.
