in reply to Yet Another Appeal for Civility

Harmony is not a value on its own in my mind. A group of robbers might act in harmony, no reason to get along with them. PM is not full of robbers, but there are bad actors here according to the values which I think most hold. I find Anonymous Monk particularly annoying in that a philosopher implicitly goes on trial with the philosophy that they express. AM avoids this context entirely.

But I also have been down voting a lot lately and hear the call.

sub is_currently_bad_actor { return ( $best_nodes("score") - abs($worst_nodes("score")) > 0 ) }

    the more downvotes you give me the less upvotes you give others
      The FEWER upvotes you give others.
      That is a really valid point. Thank you.
