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.

Do leopards change their spots?



It seems we are in store for a kinder, gentler Trump.  News reports are saying “he” has “rewritten” his speech with the motive of “bringing the country together.”

Link to article here.

What he’s saying: “This is a chance to bring the whole country, even the whole world, together,” Trump told the Examiner.

  • The speech will be a lot different, a lot different than it would’ve been two days ago,” he said.
  • “It is a chance to bring the country together. I was given that chance.”  

1. Do you believe it, that his goal is to "bring the country together?"

2. Is he just having a momentary bout of a “significant negative emotional experience,” something I always cite as a game-changer, with this weekend's assassination attempt on his life?  And in reality, this [kinder, gentler feeling] too shall pass?

3. What do you make of this new and improved DJT?  Are you buying it?  Should we “Give peace a chance?”
