The "problem" with your #2 is that only one side wants that. The other side fears losing their privilege/capital/power/reputation and cares not a whit for those they consider sub-human. Putting some foxes into the henhouse won't go well for the hens when it's dinner time.

Do you honestly believe conservatives want an open, honest, inclusive dialogue in which both sides of all issues are considered with respect for every viewpoint?

Their "gotta get mine before anyone else gets theirs" attitudes and beliefs are absolutely antithetical to such a thing.

So I stand by my statement: Only one side is willing to have a productive conversation about any given issue.

Haha 'one click away', I see nothing that proves your original comment, the burden of proof lay upon you (when the argument was active). That's quite a jump to conclusion too. But whatever helps you sleep at night while accepting your bullshit narrative was openly called out and you made a fool of yourself. Must be hard spreading propaganda on internet forums. Have a good one. You may choose to reply to this comment…

Flamewar and personal attacks are not allowed here, regardless of how wrong someone is or you feel they are. We ban accounts that do this, so could you please review the site rules and follow them? They're at https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html , and we'd be grateful.

Great point. I would happily follow the rules and I do.

Evidently though, the other person went ad-hominem with a very aggressive reddit-esque comment on a simple reply I gave. No one chimed in to flag that comment so I had to speak for myself. I just hope a moderator would have sprung into action sooner. That being said, it's nice you guys are making effort to keep the board clean from becoming `that`.

I'll just keep away from inciteful comments the next time. I really wish there was a report option here too.
