Etiquette



DP Etiquette

First rule: Don't be a jackass.

Other rules: Do not attack or insult people you disagree with. Engage with facts, logic and beliefs. Out of respect for others, please provide some sources for the facts and truths you rely on if you are asked for that. If emotion is getting out of hand, get it back in hand. To limit dehumanizing people, don't call people or whole groups of people disrespectful names, e.g., stupid, dumb or liar. Insulting people is counterproductive to rational discussion. Insult makes people angry and defensive. All points of view are welcome, right, center, left and elsewhere. Just disagree, but don't be belligerent or reject inconvenient facts, truths or defensible reasoning.

Fact and logic is absent in politics

IVN (Independent Voter Network) has published a Dissident Politics article that describes the unacceptably low impact of unspun fact and unbiased logic in mainstream two-party politics. Irrefutable fact and logic evidence shows that two-party political rhetoric and thinking is overwhelmingly dominated by distorted or denied facts, misinformation and flawed logic.

The article is here: http://ivn.us/2015/08/05/opinion-facts-logic-awol-two-party-politics/.
