You do see that I didn't start any flame war, but a responder did? It's not a generic tangent because it refers directly to the content of the article. The intention is to illuminate the similarities, and hopefully bring about some empathy for others who don't want to be on lists for exercising their rights...

I notice you didn't warn the anti rights person who did start the flamewar, because that person refuses to acknowledge similarities between the two situations.

I notice you have a tendency to attack me because you clearly disagree with my opinions.

I'm obviously not welcome here. I'll go. You won't need to worry about any more wrongthink from me. Enjoy enforcing your opinions on everyone. Your board, your rules.

Introducing the flamewar topic makes you responsible for the flamewar, which is why I replied to you, as well as to at least one other user who made it worse.

I don't disagree with your opinions; I don't even know what they are. The only thing I care about is that users abide by the site rules when posting here, because if we don't actively take care of that, this place will go up in flames.
