civility and mutual respect have fallen on FR

In the few years I have been logging in to this site the same thing has been noted many times. Seems we are always getting less cordial; at the same time there is a great deal of maturity overall: probably that's due to the increasing age of the participants.

HHKrepublican_2, at least you have the satisfaction of knowing people would notice when you turned up an unperson. I’d never be missed.

>>>at the same time there is a great deal of maturity overall

RightWhale you really think so ? When I see a post where supposedly mature politically aware adults go around calling a serious contender “Julie Annie” I just cringe at the childishness. And there seems like such a lot of this attitude. Rule or ruin. My way or else.

It’s not a question of Rudy. It’s the crackpots, and they are getting very embarrassing. All I know is when you get into the realm of political purity tests, you eventually end up with a very small, impotent, and immaterial but oh so self righteous remainder.
