It is not Gerard's loss. It is everyone's loss that you feel incapable of
civilly and articulately expressing yourself here.

Hoi,
If you cannot say it here, I doubt it is reasonable to say it elsewhere
and
expect to be heard. If you want to polarise between
those who are able to
express themselves civilly and those that find they cannot., you can go
into
your own little corner and sulk. Strong opinions can
be expressed without
using strong words. The reason for strong opinions and civil words is to
make sure that a message is heard and acted upon. When strong words are in
the way of having the message heard, you are indeed talking into a vacuum
and if that is on this other platform, then it is your option to be there
and consequently not be heard.
Thanks,

Your loss.
