It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

We should definately fire the history teacher to afford classes to teach a portion of the student body how to not be pricks. What good is history anyway? I mean California is just indoctrinating kids anyway. just listen to this drivel.
I guess sarcasm really is lost on people when you don't spell it out for them...

Happy now?
Admittedly, California is reasonably good; but I was highlighting the fact that (generally, not specifically California, not even just America) many modern schools often fail to teach students useful life skills like road safety or personal finance, instead teaching things like modified versions of history such as holocaust denialism.
History is ofc important and students should be learning about it accurately; but I've always thought there should be a bigger focus on immediately useful life skills.
Knowing what happened in the 1860s (US civil war) is good and all, but not very helpful if you misunderstand where/how you're supposed to safely ride your bike otw to school and die in a car accident at 13yo because of it.
thank you, I wasn't sure if you were being sarcastic or not. I don't really get sarcasm, you could probably tell that my my response which should be taken 100% at face value.
