To be blunt about it: Duh.
I know you’ve posted that a million times, and at least once or twice to me.
I am addressing the issue of HOW to best effect FR’s goals. Turning that point into some strawman that you are being urged to be “fair and balanced” is not helpful.
Be biased toward your ideology all you want. But what are you going to do to advance your cause? Defeat people in the arena of ideas or simply shut people up? Or does your bias not extend to believing sufficiently in the strength of your ideas to overcome and win out? That is not equivalent to allowing FR to become a “liberal debating society.”
Further, I am not talking about the treatment of “trolls and assorted malcontents” and I believe you know that.
Call me later. My violin is at the shop.
