I agree, civil discourse must be restored. Its hard, even I find myself from time to time descending into personal insults, which is not constructive. But the situation is now endemic, which is scary, that now the likes of Kathryn Maher, head of NPR, can say whatever she wants to vilify entire cohorts of people (i.e. straight white men). We really have to get a handle on this before the madness descends to a point where we cant reign it in.

She did the same thing when she was with Wikipedia. Clueless and never held accountable.

Yep. The thing I find so interesting is, in order to openly diss a certain cohort of people, you must really have a deep resentment in your soul. She has this stylish blonde exterior, but she must be very very dark inside. I wouldn't under any serious circumstance speak about others the way she has spoken. Utterly uncivilized, in the deepest sense.
