(17,997 posts)We will have to wait to see if this actually causes change. That's a point of view and it opposes the point that the rules are in place so it will cause change. A point of view isn't a fact other than the fact the person holds that point of view. Maybe if that person was asked why they hold that point of view, rather than getting snide remarks in response, they could have backed it with facts. Even the OP says, "to try to discourage"
I don't understand how we can all be going toward the same goal and can't discuss without attacking. The person said they're skeptical but hope it works. In response they're accused of not reading or understanding. Now I am accused of going to Obama threads "just to take a dump" by someone else. Something I have never done.
Maybe, if the question was asked, "what makes you think this" instead of a condescending response, there could have been an actual discussion. Or maybe allow people their opinions without being called stupid. .
My point of view is that too many people on DU think it's their way or no way.
