I do not share your sentiments about the news and politics forum.

Be mindful of what you say on the internet, more often than not, it comes to bite you when you least expect it...

(I'm using generic "you" here)
If you were someone I saw everyday, especially if you were someone that I saw everyday and liked, I wouldn't jump as readily to criticize your political or social opinions, especially without more regard for how I expressed my disagreement.

Since this forum exists for us to talk and debate about stuff, I assume that people are interested in debate and might even enjoy disagreement for the sake of teasing out and strengthening their own opinions.

I don't think I've ever said anything I'd be completely ashamed of online or anything (well, if I thought long enough, I'm sure I could think of something), but sometimes I post without considering things as much as I would if I were sending out a neighborhood newsletter.
