Haaaaa sorry about that, gentle vulpine.club users; I suspect I had a setting that was Bad and it took awhile before it finally hit. Maybe. IDK, I just work here.

Back when I was active on Usenet it was considered pretty normal to have house rules for any newsgroup, you were also expected to refrain from posting long enough to notice and learn the unspoken customs (this was called "lurking").
Nowadays people see it as an orchestrated attack against free speech, shout references to 1984, and threaten to move elsewhere.
Yet the ones asking us all to behave politely are called "hypersensitive"?

I wasn't in the initial group asking for it, but I've appreciated political posts being behind CW. Literally the entire rest of the internet is full of that when I want to become informed. I enjoy having a space set apart.

The REAL 7 habits of highly successful people:
1) Being born into a rich family
2) Not having to face discrimination
3) Going to a private school with exceptional support
4) Going to an exclusive university where you can build contacts with other rich people and get opportunities most people don't have
5) Having good credit history because you've never struggled to pay bills, making it easy for you to get investments
6) Financial safety nets
7) Politicians bend over backwards for you
