If we were talking, like the "pub posts" in a bar discussing? I would not hold back. I've been on tons of forums over time and I've learned.... most forums are full of super rigid assholes who apparently think that their forum will any day be entered into the library of congress, so I've learned to be really careful. That or they they are just looking to rape anyone who isnt part of the accepted regular team. (See that sounds harsh when i reread it)

TFP seems far more open however, I've only been here... not any time at all really... so i find the idea of getting used to having that openness, like you guys do all the time?... daunting. I'm a bastard on facebook to my real life friends though. Hmmm... interesting, need to think about that later.

Funny side note, I joined for the philosophy cause I love it, but the political section because i have a more "radical" belief in politics and I could maybe finally actually discuss it and maybe meet like thinkers for once.

(edit) I also have a terrible habit of not capitalizing and omitting punctuation. I write like I speak so it ends up looking like some sort of weird transcripting. So alot of editing pre-post is rules of english etc.
