| Re: Debate Area
I think that some of the participants sound like they are entitled to superimpose what they feel is legitimate discourse on this forum.
I find that odd...given the currently stated rules as provided.
Others on this forum feel that their input is somehow more 'valuable' and based in some brand of higher 'reasoning', which is quite laughable..
Others still, are taking their alleged, self-appointed, self-righteous, overly pedantic involvement a bit too seriously.
That said, a clear set of rules of participation is always in order.
Censorship, or an attempt to 'steer' subject matter, or eliminate subject matter in a community forum (as presently conducted) is never a good idea.
I might add there have been surreptitious attempts even to muzzle and or curtail my participation.
Any unreasonable censorship or clever denial of access to the ability to post is telling indeed.
Just look at the attempts to 'bridle' (reasonable) free speech.
No one has to like opinions....opinions need not be supported by 'facts' in any discourse on a web-based forum.
Some participants here find a need to be patriarchal, thinking there is some sort of 'need' for their 'wise leadership'. They seem to be self-aggrandizing meshuggenehs.....serving their own brand of Kool-Aid
