I’m one of the older people on this forum and I’ve watched civility wane over many decades. It breaks my heart. Politically, civility has been going downhill all my adult life. It doesn’t really look like one sides fault; it’s just this huge slide.

It is obvious that negative campaigning works. Even some commercials use it. (Remember the line, “AT&T, lighten up” from an MCI commercial?) Successful techniques are hard to extinguish.

I applaud this effort, and this post. That won’t do much.
