Could emphasized, which means that it could also not.
Like I said somewhere elsewhere recently, I avoid "serious" MB discussions about politics and such because there's just too many strong opinions with flimsy backing.
Not really a holier than thou attitude. When I studied, I did learn to recognize an argument that would stand up to scrutiny in an academic paper from one that wouldn't. But I don't consider myself very able to make solid arguments about serious things. I just choose to stay out instead of having to regret what I said later.
Many people would rather have their heated discussions regardless. That's how it becomes an endless cycle of mudslinging - because no one is doing anything to further the discussion. It just quickly stalls and people keep repeating themselves.
