@ThatRobVK I am not sure but it does exist. As MLK said “Any law that uplifts human personality is just. Any law that degrades human personality is unjust.”

@ThatRobVK My point is that there are greater moral truths, and it is not just OK to hold those strongly, it is the expected and morally correct thing to do as a human.

@ThatRobVK So some ideas are eventually revealed to be intrinsically correct (e.g. racism is bad) and should not be challenged from that point on?

@ThatRobVK so racism.. could be good.. in the right circumstances?

"We’ve been told that facts have lost their power, that debunking lies only makes them stronger, and that the internet divides us. Don’t believe any of it." https://t.co/MBaqz0fufh

@ThatRobVK OK, my strongly held opinion is that racism is bad. Talk me out of it!

The next time you're thinking "I am going to complain on Twitter about.." try to flip the script to "I am going to send money to {place} to fix.."

@carrickdb I am obviously biased, but @discourse

@carrickdb You've probably had "discussions" on Twitter too, doesn't make it a sane format for that. Any software can technically be used for anything.

@carrickdb reddit is hideous for actual discussion, hence I don't think it's a forum in any sense of the word. It is abysmal, actively bad for discussions. It is fantastic for breaking news, memes, and funny stuff though.

I'm struck by how old-timey forum software has almost created its own subculture of people that want to go down with the sinking ship of misguided 1999 era forum design decisions https://t.co/OANRxjzR9E

I think strongly held opinions are fine as long as everyone keeps their sense of humor. If one’s sense of humor is lost, things are generally bad all over.
