This space is for adding context.

  • Stay on topic. Share what you know and how you know it.
  • Criticize ideas, not people. No personal attacks, slurs, threats or harassment.
  • Link a source for factual claims when you can. No spam or ads.
  • Use one name. Pseudonyms are fine, but pretending to be someone else isn’t.
