It seems too status quo. The fact is that it's impossible with a membership this size to expect everyone to get along. Not allowing a venue where these differences can be aired is what led up to this whole debacle in the first place.
This might be taking the analogy too far, but I hope you get my meaning: For years, the Soviets forced Yugoslavians to get along. Any dissent was swiftly surpressed. Look what happened once that control was lifted.
I'm not even sure we're rocking the boat here. I think we might be just shaking a martini.

If airing out your social frustrations is important to you, I'm not sure what to say. One thing I'd like to change about the status quo here is the labeling that goes on. Opinions have the right to be heard. I think the invitation to "call a spade a spade" has demonstrated quite quickly that the real power is in the majority. This, to me, is unacceptable.
