@drewdevault I'm not afraid of discussing them (I'm very much involved in very controversial debates), I just don't want an otherwise fun get together to get soured by these things.
Imagine going to an event, excited to meet people and prepared for lots of fun...
Then suddenly people left, right and center start shouting and crying because these kinds of discussions (I can almost guarantee you that what happens at the table, won't just stay at the table).
I'm pretty sure that'd ruin the experience.
At least, it would for me.
