Hi, All,
I have genuinely high hopes for a productive conversation here on QOTO.
Putting aside the base hatred of things that are different (e.g., I hate President Obama because he has Black Skin; I hate President Trump because he has Orange Skin; I hate President Clinton because he is a Cisgendered horndog; I hate President Trump because he is a Cisgendered horndog...)
Is there a basis for all of the personality bashing other than the Left hates the Right and the Right hates the Left?
Is it naive to advocate for a Political Process that discusses policy affecting those being represented or do we simply invent technology that permits policy to be decided by determining who shouts the loudest?

@williamlweaver I beleive and hope that if you keep the caliber of your discussion to this level you will find we can have pretty productive conversations here.
Of course when people are less respectful it just tends to get you ignored. So even then I'd say as a community we do a pretty good job reaching across the aisle.
I always try to lurk on this sort of stuff just to help keep the maturity level maxed out, but rarely do I need to interject in that regard.
Great post, keep it up!

@williamlweaver If you reply to the last comment it usually includes the names of everyone int he thread. By doing this you can engage the whole group rather than individuals.

@freemo
Thanks for the kudos and a great community!
I am receiving awesome, productive responses to this post.
Being a newbie, is there a prefered method for continuing the conversation as a thread, or should I respond to each poster individually?
Thanks! =]
