No, on reddit one side gets to call the other stupid, and the other gets banned for saying anything back.

That's retarded and shows a poor grasp of logic.

In my way, both sides get to call each other retarded and lacking in logic, and other people get to make up their minds who's telling the truth.

Pretty simple stuff really.

Adult conversations involve people with the courage to face mean words, not people who hide from mean words out of weakness and fear.

Effectively making an oppositional argument to a hostile audience is one of the most difficult things a person can do. The answer is not, however, turning Saidit into something that caters to you.
