Hey John,
I just had a funny experience. I decided to have a discussion on "The View from the Center and Left" thread about political correctness. I think I was able to get two or three posts in before they banned me. One of the loons over there, epicure, was spouting a string of curse words, so I told him that his arguments would be more effective if he'd come across with more equanimity. Then they banned me. I think that's the quickest I've been banned from a thread.

Lesson learned. The leftwing in this country prefer censorship to engagement. The hysteria and outrage coming from the left has reached the point where Independents and Moderates, as well as Republicans and Conservatives, in other words 65% of the country, are all personae non gratae to them. On the one hand, my experience was funny. On the other hand, it shows how unreasonable the left has become after they lost the election. They are in the full throws of victim mentality and have now withdrawn into their safe spaces where they won't be triggered.

Disheartening to say the least.
