Are the endless string of back-and-forth I/P diaries on Daily Kos good for this site, or are they bad for Daily Kos?
I'm NOT interested in this diary in ANYONE'S opinion on the Middle East, in particular anything having to do with the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians. I'm not interested in anyone's questions, thoughts, talking points or propaganda on the nature of Israeli democracy, the relationship between the US and Israel, Zionism or anything else.
I DO NOT CARE what you think about the conflict in the Middle East. And frankly, if nobody wrote a substantive comment about this diary, I'd be quite happy. Personally, as Joe Random Kossack, I think the I/P diaries are a scourge, and one of the best improvements that could happen at Daily Kos would be that the people who post the I/P diaries, regardless of what "side" they're on, would voluntarily stop posting them. So I definitely hope people don't use this diary to discuss I/P.
But please post an EMPTY comment if you'd like to see people stop posting I/P diaries at Daily Kos; just stick an * or something in the subject line. That way, if people see a bunch of comments, they'll be more likely to read this diary, and then cast their vote. I really would like to see what people think. AND NOTE: I am NOT asking whether there should be a ban on I/P diaries; I can't see there ever being something like that at Daily Kos, and I don't think there should be. Rather, I'm asking, do you think people who post I/P diaries should choose on their own to stop posting on that subject.
Please cast your vote.
