Civil Commentary on the R'lyeh commentary on Civil Discussion Threads

RE: Civil Commentary on the R'lyeh commentary on Civil Discussion Threads
It annoys me that some folks are still calling this a safe space and saying we cant take the heat or something. In regards to the latter, if by "cant take the heat" means I got tired of having to sift through personal insults or otherwise unserious detracting posts when I'm trying to have an honest and productive discussion, then sure. I cant take the heat. Ya got me lol.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
