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.

Political Influence…

When it comes to how you think about politics, who has or has had the most political influence on you?

  • Spouse
  • Significant other
  • Family figureheads
  • Other family members (if so, who)
  • Friends
  • Neighbors
  • No one (I fly solo)
  • I’m the influencER, not the influencEE
  • Other 

 Describe that influence.  How did it come about?  What was its evolution?

  • I was convinced or convinced others via argument  
  • I did/do it to keep peace in the family and/or with friends.
  • Other
