To clarify one thing: on this forum, regardless of what certain forum users have expressed on this thread, we want to promote a focus on intellectual substance and arguments, rather than sarcasm, mockery, or personal attacks. Even if one believes that a certain figure “deserves” to be mocked or ridiculed, that is not the kind of rhetoric that we want to focus on in here. In particular, wild speculations or insinuations about one’s internal personal motivations are not allowed. If you encounter posts that are of that nature, of any intellectual stance, please feel free to flag them to bring them to moderators’ attention. True to its name, we want to encourage peaceful discourse on this website, in contrast to many other places on the internet where these topics are hotly debated. Do not post something here that you would be reluctant to say in a face-to-face conversation with that person.
I would encourage newer forums users to read this list of general guidelines of discourse on this forum:
