That's kind of what I'm trying to see this place from, the pros and cons.
OP obviously has a few gripes that I tried to ask people about, no real definitive answer thusfar.
And you like the freedom, which is cool.
Ultimately, rules aside, a place is going to thrive or tank based on the people and the positive exchanges that can be had using this as a preferred platform of communication.

Addendum, I like the insightful vs fun voting rather than reddit's negativity of burying a thread.

Yes, I think it's a clever addition to try to keep the conversations moving. The foundation that the site's creators encourage for the decorum here is the pyramid of debate

The ad-hominem is always a tough one though. In religious circles it's a very valid criticism to microscope in on the person. Also, if Hitler was a good looking man and held up as a specimen, instead of an evil looking troll, we'd be like, yeah... but, the Shoah.

And not to anyone in particular, but I'll out myself as being a conservative leaning Jewish person (((Me))) lol. And yes, I do want Israel to survive so it makes me a zionist.

Haha. Well, you and I might not agree on politics, but I welcome you and I'm glad to converse with you.
