I know what you're getting at but I feel like the "Don't disagree with the thesis of the Jezebel post or they will ban you!!!!" is kind of like the boogeyman of these boards. It's a fallacy. No one here objects to people disagreeing with them. I can't tell you how much my coworkers/eds speak up for the rights of Read more

No worries; most of the commenters are really awesome and totally make up for anything negative. Read more
