> this Politics board is about something called 'civility.'
I sure hope so. Politics, inspiring people's passions as it does and should, perhaps needs, demands, requires, civility, even more than the other boards.
Maybe I am just a big, dumb bird avoiding reality.
Maybe it's just my own issues that have me sometimes feeling it's more about sand being repeatedly kicked into my face, than any burying I could do on my own.
Maybe I need to figure out how to absorb the 'education" sent my way with some doses of offense, put downs and name-calling. Be good for me, right? Toughen me up or something?
Education on political topics and kindness to others (=civility) are mutually exclusive? Who woulda thunk it? :-(
I guess most everyone but me. I think I give up :-(
