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.

You be the judge...

 


Some relevant philosophical questions:

Q1.) If some of the insurrectionists believed / interpreted that Donald Trump was calling on them to storm the Capital, guilt-wise, does it matter if Trump actually said the words “storm the Capital,” or just merely implied it (spoke in code)?

- How do you (personally) draw that line?

 

Q2.) The impeachment article says that Donald Trump was responsible for inciting the insurrection, not that he caused the ensuing injuries and deaths.  Should Trump also be held responsible in some way for the effects of the insurrection as well?

- How do you (personally) draw that line?


Q3.) Do you think Donald Trump is guilty of inciting the Capital Building insurrection?

- What’s your final verdict on the House's Article of Impeachment, and what is your reasoning behind your verdict?

 

Thanks for your thoughts. And for recommending.
