For a time, we have peaceful threads on various subjects and all was right with the world. Look at the non binding resolutions thread going on right now. It's peaceful, it's mature, it's informative. Look at " What happens if the Middle East fights a major civil war?". It's a divisive issue, and there is nothing in there but good discussion. Let's leave the exaggerating about how bad politics is to the politicians, and let's do everything we can to keep Tilted Politics a place where people can come to simply discuss politics.

I can agree that certain subjects aren't as bad as others, but in my opinion, they are just peanuts in the shit. The threads that people go into not thinking that they know everything are vastly outnumbered by the threads where people post like they do.
I'm not trying to attack anyone, I'm just calling it like I see it. I read the Politics forum quite a bit, but I don't post because I really don't like getting involved in long, drawn out discussions with people who act like religious zealots. I find that I learn just as much without posting.
