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.

Explain yourself...

This question is mostly for the U.S. crowd, but if outside the U.S., chime in with your country’s political equivalent.


Fill in the blank:

A.)    I am a (Democrat, Independent, Republican, other) because ___________________________.


Or, if your “not” reasons dominate, flip the scenario:

B.)    I am not a (Democrat, Independent, Republican, other because ___________________________.


If you can/will, please answer both questions (the “why” and the “why not” of your voting choice). 


C.)    What guiding political principle(s) are most important to you (e.g., personal and/or social freedoms / rights, economic policies, lower taxes, etc.)?

Thanks for posting and favoriting.
