... not because I think you should in any way "stay in your lane." Personally, I think your lane is all things democratic and I think DU would be a better community if more members were like you. You're one of my favorite persons here, Yui, and a big reason I frequent it.

As an aside, I often get frustrated with the DU community. There's an awful lot of groupthink in this place and an awful lot of intolerance -- though many in this community will never see that or acknowledge it. In fact, I'd say that odds are at least 50-50 that this post of mine will be reported and censored because it isn't groupthink enough for the true believers.

The fact that you were upbraided, Yui, leaves me shaking my head. Nuff said.
