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.

An exercise in psychology

I was gonna say “an exercise in futility,” and I know we’ve beaten this dead horse enough times to the point of rigor mortis, even petrification, but I gotta ask one more time…

Why do people still support Trump?

Take a walk on the wild side and put yourself in the mindset of a Trump supporter.  Explain that kind of "Trump loyalty" to me like I’m a five-year-old (a la Denzel Washington in “Philadelphia”).  Because I really don’t get it.  It’s foreign to me.

Thanks for posting and explaining it to me.
