I propose that the only place for political topics to be discussed effectively is in an environment where there is a tradition of conduct and an built-in exclusion of trolling... the Debate forum sounds a perfect fit to my thinking.
Only the active participants can contribute to the discussion (no "piling on,") there is no room (or need) for garbage input (which is pointless anyway,) and the prevailing "tradition" is to discuss the topic (NOT each other) which constrains the "free-for-all" hazard... this might avoid making it about 'feelings,' 'aspersions,' and other media/activism antics.
But this is just an opinion I have... Would anyone be game to try it out, I wonder?
Just sayin... certainly there are enough bold members who could.
