And yes, it is all "about" crowd control. There would be no need for moderators or thread tags if every poster was considerate and diplomatic.
No doubt some posters will be offended by having to be specifically included in a caucus. The Orthodox posters were quite offended and several of them left in a huff. But the distinction would not have been necessary in the first place if ordinary Catholic Caucus threads back then didn't end up in repetitious bitter disputes.
I'm still leaning towards keeping SSPX separate until they accept the olive branch. But I'm not through reading and considering all the comments here.
I'm sure you realized that my labeling of the “social justice” crowd as “Catholic Caucus (Marxist)” was tongue in cheek. I've known many “social justice” Catholics over the years. Not all are outright socialists.
