Civil and politics shouldn't be in the same paragraph let alone the same sentence these days. Maybe the definition of civil changed in the last decade or so.

How do you have a rational and logical debate/discussion when the left isn't rational and logical?
No matter your policy disagreement, it is because of racism, sexism, classism, or some other ism. Facts and logic don't matter.

Pretty bad when the people at ATS are using more logic and reasoning then the rest of the population in America.

Do you like how politics is going these days?
If not, perhaps its time to bring civil back.

Those are all reasonable things to point out.
But if you start throwing insults to anyone reading that, people would tune out.
If you make your point and no one listens, all you can do is continue to make your point.
Eventually, it may catch on.
But the counter question if someone doesnt listen to you, has insulting ever helped?
I would say that if we look at it honestly, even if results are not good on either strategy, you are more likely in the long run to have success without the insults.

But how? Even a good elected congressman gets caught up in what a few people are stirring up in DC and if they don't follow, their chances of getting help for the people they represent gets ignored and denied.
