*nod* You're making a good point about the "too messy/too much" thing - that rings a bell with things I've seen and heard elsewhere. I don't want anyone to have to basically shut down their personality or communication style to use the community. This might be one of those times where people's needs get in the way of each other. I don't have a solution on-hand, but I'm sure talking about it is good.
As far as I know, winterfox is the only person whose commenting and posting style is being discussed here, but now I'm wondering how many people (like you?) are feeling silenced or constrained on a tone basis already, and how the discussion about her post and comments might put more pressure on them.
I'm sorry about the invalidation about WF's post. I definitely think she had the right to call out Cindy Pon for the rape culture and racism. My comment was not so much about that post itself as about some of her comments.
