Interesting how having intellectual curiosity as the goal, rather than the ubiquitous 'an inclusive space where everyone can feel safe', has ended up in a forum that's much 'safer' and less toxic than most places on the Internet.

Yes, but/because many subjects are off-topic here. It's easy to avoid lots of kinds of internet drama if you blanket prohibit the topics.

I'm glad this place exists how it is, but it can also be a bit stuffy.
