Is there any point in me trying to change your mind on your idea that, somehow, you improve the dialogue, if you stifle the thoughts and ideas poorly expressed, not thought through, or just plain wrong-headed?

What needs to change is people’s reactions to them ~ mine included, sometimes ~ and you don’t get that improvement by banning their tolerance training material.

It seems like all those who advocate moderation {sic} and censorship have at least one thing in common.
They think, if they stop people writing what they don’t like to read, they will improve the conversation.

But the truth is, all that does is chase away contributors, because people don’t spend their time contributing if they think you’re going to hit the delete key on them.

Its so negative Jeff. Your focus has to be on how do we get better contributions from more authors, not how do we stop people writing stuff we don’t like.
