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.

A video that makes the Republican Party threat to democracy crystal clear

This ~26 minute video makes it about as clear as the MSM can make the Republican Party threat to democracy and civil liberties can be made. People who cannot see it now, essentially the entire GOP leadership, almost all T**** supporters, and nearly all anti-democracy forces (e.g., the pro-pollution sector led by Exxon-Mobile), very likely will not be able to see the threat before it is too late, or see it now but do not care enough to change their behaviors because so much profit is at stake.
