I care about civility. Seems like a lot to ask that we be decent to each other. 
 

The shoutbox has been disabled for me for years. No interest in a running dialog. You’ll have to fill us all in on what upsets you about it.

It's relatively simple:  If something offends you, ignore it.  If everyone does this, then the offender will either go away or change their behavior.  If you constantly give attention seekers what they're craving, then they're going to keep behaving like the morons they are.

 

You're in no position to demand anything and you're not going to change THIS board or the tenor of politics - it's never been civil, contrary to what the romantics want you to believe.  Maybe PPP isn't for you.

PPP is unlikely to change but TBD could by excising it. SDS feels PPP adds something so it’s not going anywhere and stays what it is until we change it.

And if they cut it out, it all moves to the main board and you'd be complaining that TSW lets too much "wrong think" in for your tastes. 

 

There's that math you keep overlooking on your quest to close down a place you've spent more time in the past 6 months than most other people

Spoken like a true Marxist, as if it were their's to change. Why not try the tried and true method: the boycott.

Why do you feel it is so important to change a forum that you admittedly don't want to be a part of?

.....and yet can't tear themselves away from it.

Interesting to note that the rise of virtual "protesters" here mirror those in reality on the streets.  So far, no actual looting, burning, shooting, etc. here.  However, it is neat to see the BLM/antifa-like posters swing in the wind with frustration as they gear up the rhetoric hoping for a virtual meltdown.

 

Would that there was an Ignore button on every lamp post....

As I and others have said, the way to change PPP is to ignore the trolls. Use the ignore feature. Do not engage those that are only down here to cause problems.  Engage in a civilized debate with others.  Listen to "the other side" and present your rebuttable in a reasonable, rational, calm matter.

I don’t always agree with your posts, but you do a fine job of handling yourself.  You’re  like a dog on a bone on this issue, however, and it seems you have an agenda you are pursuing.  
 

AD gave you an answer, it was clear and concise, time to move on.
