People are downvoting against their beliefs instead of for the guidelines of discussion. It’s a hot (headed) topic.

The parent post violates the guidelot in two ways, violating both the rule against commenting on downvotes and the rule about assuming good faith.

there is very litle discussion here any more; its pretty much tribalism by people who aren't honest about being naked tribalists. The irony is that despite the leftist ideas, the actual age is incredibly conformist and conservative; there is a conservative ideology and a conservative spirit, and its possible to be leftist and yet be hidebound or reactionary in terms of free speech or tolerance.
