I've had people ping me to give a comment on X national event, and when I gave my response, I get modded. I've had people mudsling and when people ask what the heck they're slandering me on, I give the definition and get modded. I've had people ask me for my take on controversial topics off from the main topic, and when I give them, I get modded.

It took a while but I've finally wised up and started ignoring people and starting pulling my punches to say the least but it's still irritating that CE only accepts one type of response for any topic. Go out of bounds and you risk getting modded as it'll be considered bigoted/racist/evil/whatever. Even worse there are posters who actively bait with these questions to set people up to get modded. And a number of CE posters don't believe that this actually happens even you point it out in that same topic when it occurs.

This is why it's utterly laughable to see this board attempt to do any kind of intellectual discourse. You'll get one side and the other side will be modded the oblivion. Even worse, you'll see posters actively try to understand and relate to the other side on sensitive topics regarding certain groups only to have their topic locked because the CE accepted side refuses to elaborate and contribute to a healthy discussion.
