No we dont need the drama. We want to be an education center as well as a resource for information.
Politics simply turns people against each other.

I get that it is polarizing, but the fact is that it SHOULD be talked about BECAUSE it's polarizing. Politics is supposed to be about ideas and vetting those ideas against each other. You're supposed to be able to talk about them so you can get both sides, or better yet, ALL sides of the issue. Then you can come together and decide what the best solutions are for all involved.
This bullshit about not talking about it because it might offend somebody is what's causing all the problems in the first place. We just play into the politicians hands by listening to "our" side's views of what's happening and dismissing the other.
There is no way you can tell me that every Democrat is a Marxist and a moron or that every Republican is a greedy redneck who wants to kill grandma and destroy the planet. Yet that's what our media wants us to believe. Almost every single one of us holds values from both sides but we aren't allowed to even express our opinions without the cancel culture and WOKE individuals shouting us down.
THIS is what's wrong with America, and the world at large. Until we can start talking to each other again, it's only going to get worse. How do you think the Facebooks and the Twitters and the YouTubes of the world are getting away with all this censorship and banning people?!? Because nobody wants to put themselves in the crosshairs by calling them out. They're too powerful.
THIS is where we SHOULD be having these discussions. This place represents freedom from those people and should be an open forum for the discussion of ideas. If you disagree with something, call it out. But back up your opinion with reasoning. Don't just say "you're an idiot".
We constantly preach the mantra Do your own research about everything in crypto. Well that should go double...triple when you are throwing out opinions about huge issues like healthcare and welfare and abortion and gun rights, etc.
Rant over. Chalk up another 1 comment for dagger. :-)
