yes, almost everyday. would not be here if otherwise.

i have also had many of these threads removed by mods, or end up in harassment/insults from other users who didn't like the content of the discussion being discussed. lots of people want to derail or silence productive discussion because it makes them uncomfortable or doesn't support their preexisting biases. especially about social or political problems.

the problem is certain users just HATE anyone who says anything they disagree with, and need to paint everyone who doesn't agree with them as irredeemably evil. I've seen people write fan-fictions about me personally, based on a few comments I've made. and further, they are OUTRAGED that anyone upvotes my comments or anyone agrees with them, and usually start reporting such comments to get me banned from that community. and these folks... are convinced they aren't the problem. It's me and my views that are the problem, and been to be silenced, rather than discussed.

I like discussion and asking questions and interactions... a lot of folks in life in general are incredibly threatened and hostile to this type of socialization. but it's cool when folks also share that mentality and share their insights and experiences or thoughtful speculations.
