I assume people downvote you about Musk and Trump because they disagree with your takes and think you're not contributing anything interesting to the discussion. People are allowed to downvote. What would you propose mods do in that situation?

Honestly, "everyone" knows there are acceptable boundaries of opinion in a lot of circles generally--including this one--that even nuanced takes cannot cross without bring out the knives. By and large, it makes sense to accept that and move on. You likely won't change anyone's mind and you'll just get upset.

Sure, someone could have a bad take, could be simply wrong, or simply have a different opinion. Why do you assume that I cannot differentiate between them?
