(10,893 posts)OK...just making sure that this isn't DailyPaul after I read that post you linked to (and others like it). These past few weeks have been disturbingly revealing, to say the least. Not once did I ever expect to hear posters on a site dedicated to progressives essentially tell others to pipe down about issues that affect disadvantaged groups in society.
What is a head-scratcher to me is if these race/gender/sexual orientation threads bother them so much, why must they continue to post in them? Skinner made the "trash thread/keyword" and "ignore" functions for a reason. They could easily go along with one of those options, and this place can go back to being more peaceful. It's not like anyone is holding them at gunpoint and forcing them to click on a thread about privilege, for example.
