In that case you completely missed the point of my response and are, as I said, romanticizing yesterday as though the good didn't come part and parcel with plenty of bad. If you don't think a generally mean spirit had a significant hand in driving that content you've forgotten quite a bit.

I didn't "escalate" anything other than to point out how the loss of the supposed glory of yesterday also meant the loss of, or at least loss of tolerance for, a lot of negative shit that doesn't fly so high these days.

There are just many posts lamenting the tighter policing as there are the loss of personalities. If you don't see the correlation there, you're on some Lois Lane shit.
