@TheRealDHR@adamcifu Most people are more strongly attached to their beliefs about what's right and wrong than they are to upholding principles of democracy or free speech. Unfortunately, reasonableness and the necessity for compromise don't fire people's passions like Belief does.

@oldcreakey2010@DrFrancisYoung Not really. I ate some toast this morning but it wasn't history.

As for 'historic' - the word's gone astray of late.
