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.

Blue Wave??



In light of the anticipated U.S Senate vote to acquit Donald J. Trump on the Articles of Impeachment (scheduled Wednesday, Feb 5th @ 4pm ET), there is sure to be much outrage among the Democratic-voting public.  I expect many Democrats to be apoplectic.  [Could we get a defibrillator in here please?!] 😲

But, on the upside, almost nothing stirs people into an indignant counteraction faster than a perceived injustice.  So, [full disclosure] as a straight Democrat-ticket voter, I choose to see Trump’s unjustified acquittal as some kind of “blessing in disguise.”  Like in 2018, I’m daring to hope for another “blue wave” in November, 2020; this time even bigger... tsunami-like.  Democrats may even take back the Senate.  TBD.

Question:
Do you see a blue wave a-comin’?  Yes, no, maybe so?  Give your predictions.


Thanks for posting and recommending. 
(Happy palindrome [02-02-2020] and Groundhog Day!) 😊
