And I'm being completely honest here. I thought there was a real opportunity with that thread. If just *one* member of the alleged civility brigade could have pointed out that it was an unfair characterization of atheists on DU and was not conducive to discussion, there maybe could have been an attempt at a cease fire.

But not a single fucking one did. So fuck it, I'm still all in.
