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.

And, I think I've figured out how to embed my posts there.

Masha Gessen asserts that the election turned out like it did in part because liberal democracy offers moral constraints without problem-solving. But populism offers problem-solving without moral constraints. Trump promises you don’t have to think about others. dispol.blogspot.com/2024/11/post...
