I enjoy reading debates where two sides can discuss their points but in turn respect each other. This is such a heated topic that it can lead to comments which may seem too personal. I am not taking sides, I respect both members and feel the majority of the conversation is a fair one. However, I don't like that it sometimes comes across as an attack of the other's characters. There's no required moderation other than my amendments to the topic.

There are some fair points by both sides, but politics can lead to it becoming unhealthy.

I want to encourage open discussions, where free speech is had and without the need to close the topic or issue any form of moderation such as requiring approval to post. If this can't be handled in the way that I wish, I will be forced to do one of those actions.

As for BREXIT, I think there's always a balance between both sides of views. I voted to leave the EU, but I see no difference in the way that the UK has been since. I try to avoid discussing this, as it did become heated on Twitter back in the day and Reddit. I don't take part in that, but I read the posts shared here when I come across it.

@Robbie @Piethagoram you are never going to change each others minds. I can’t imagine either of you saying “actually I think you are right, I’ve been wrong all along”. :biggrin:
 

You are both flogging a dead horse. You need to agree to disagree and move on to another topic, how about religion? Oh no perhaps not. :panic: :joker:

Can we ban politics on PON? I think for the sake of the site it would be best. Just look how it goes on other sites.

I think this post speaks for a lot of people on here, me included. I think it's time to do it.
