Like a good Neighbor

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Some guy said something about you being represented by your ideas. As such, 
pointing out problems with your ideas is tantamount to delegitimising you as 
a person. There was a time unbelievers were burned at the stake, and 
pretending it was because our ancestors lacked some modern qualities is 
getting old.
