It seems you take the position that there are no rules (concerning the sensibilities of others in civil discourse) which govern the discussion of ideas with which you do not agree.

Perhaps I misunderstand your position. If not, however . . .

How is this position any better that the one held by the Fascists currently running amok around us?

How is it ok to use the tactics of our sworn enemies against loyal friends?

In my book, it is not.

But . . . we each keep our own ledger.
