I'll actually ask

So can someone please tell me what in the world is going on? Passions have been flaring here since yesterday. Slow news day or what!?
You're really really not making this easy for us, guys. I hate being the bad guy for no reason, but Hell is my witness, along with all the witches and goblins in there, we'll do whatever it

Politics aren't just a dry issue, they can hurt people.
In short, people unsurprisingly don't like undermining of human rights dressed up as debate, because it's not just a debate point, it's support for things that actually do affect members in the real world.

Meh. I'm too tired most days for the long-thread format others favor. I'm not on often enough to catch up on the drama. Just figured it was one more sign of the lack of good conversation available with differing viewpoints. Really, even if I do get more free time, I doubt I'll be participating much. But still on the 'read' list for the time being. At least I hear about people's hot-button issues.

I'm not normally one associated with a, um, laisseze faire attitude to things: being, in general, of the paternalistic view, which is also known to some as the "I know what's better for you than you do" point-of-view, however, I'd rather spend time in a vibrant and alive comm than a dead one.
I'm all for light (though flexible) moderating. Lightness is all. By your flame-wars are you known: by your replies are you judged. Also, I reckon that the mods on here are only the best of a bad bunch of barely-restrained internet thugs and muggers desperately striving for control over ourselves themselves as much as our their environment.
Oops, did I say that aloud?
