Not me. The language here is cleaner than it is in any playground in America.

I'm curious... have you really only been here less than a month?
I would figure it would be difficult to ascertain a 'pattern' to the posts after such a short time here.

I'm not picking on you, just curious how you came about your assessment.

One of the things I have found attractive here in the couple of months I've been a member, is how open and free folks seem to feel when talking about stuff the 'normal' world is too inhibited to discuss except with a therapist and even then I wonder how many of those patients are open and truthful.

Can you give some examples of what you are talking about? :D

Yeah, I haven't been here very long, but this forum appears to be a lot cleaner than any other one I've seen.

The "colorful" language and sometimes explicit content are exactly the reasons why people might feel more comfortable bringing up subjects they might be embarrassed to do in other situations. You will understand that when you've been here a little longer. People on the Autistic Spectrum live in the real world just as NTs do.

Er...

:roll:

This isn't about those political questions I asked you? I really would like to know your opinions on those things; someone so young and in ROTC, it might be interesting to meet someone on the "opposite" of the political spectrum (I'm presuming, I'm more Libertarian myself)

Maybe you should read "On Liberty" like I told you to, might change your mind about "inappropriate" content.

"In Mill's view, tyranny of the majority is worse than tyranny of government because it is not limited to a political function. Where one can be protected from a tyrant, it is much harder to be protected "against the tyranny of the prevailing opinion and feeling". People will be subject to what society thinks is suitable — and will be fashioned by it. The prevailing opinions within society will be the basis of all rules of conduct within society — thus there can be no safeguard in law against the tyranny of the majority. Mill goes on to prove this as a negative: the majority opinion may not be the correct opinion. The only justification for a person's preference for a particular moral belief is that it is that person's preference. On a particular issue, people will align themselves either for or against this issue; the side of greatest volume will prevail, but is not necessarily correct."


He argues against exactly this.

I completely agree. Further, there should be a ban on non-Christian forum topics. Also let's weed out anyone of a non-caucasian
persuasion.

I think the moderators here are more interested in dealing with people who are attacking or belittling others. Other than that...thats a hard call. Hard sometimes to figure out who's trolling and who really is just reaching out for help.

Here for less than a month, and already making demands that the forum change to better suit your needs, the rest of the membership be damned.

The point I wasn't hoping to make is if you going to censor one thing then why go even further. But keep in mind that when you begin censoring things based on your personal likes/dislikes, aren't you quilling others wishing to express themselves and causing friction or making other uncomfortable in even posting for fear of reprisals?
