I've not been here long, but I'm curious how users who were present before the reddit drama feel about any potential changes to the content and tone of discussions.

Gettin' hot in here. Remember Rule 1 people!

People who engage in debate in good faith are welcome. People who abuse and name call are not. Doesn't matter what your political ideology is, BE NICE!

you are assuming that people are capable of good faith.

some simply are not.

That'd be a lack of sympathetic understanding. Kindly educate someone, peacefully correct them, relate to them and ask "how could they be so wrong?" Be genuine. Too often are people berated for a differing opinion over a matter of fact. It's just a lack of awareness in nearly every case. People (usually) don't want to be ignorant on purpose, they just are
