It will be assmilated, at it's cultural distinctiveness added to our own, unless..
Frankly people, I doubt I'm the first to suggest this, but this site will remain inefior to its potential and purporse unless a few modifications are made, namely considrering the recomendation and hide rate system. It's rather disapointing that Kos, a man whom I consider intelligent, couldn't come up with this simple algorithm, but there needs to be three ratings, Agree, Disagree, and Hide. Hide ratings sould be for obsene, or highly fascists / ect languaage. Agree should be for ideas that you think the Democratic Party should support, Disagree should be for ideas you find abhorent but not in the realm of absuletely criminal / unacceptable, and of corse hide should be for the remainder.
Trianary computing is the future. Kos, I need a job, please help me out. Otherwise, steal my idea, and make a lot of money. (And then, republicans, help me out.) But, thee options are simple, and more acuratelt represent the breadth of opinions, than any who options, hide and recommend, ever could.
