I have never participated in a thread here where it didn't evolve into childish crude name-calling. People complain about forums that have filters and moderation, this site is prime example of why those boundaries are set in place.
It's a double edged sword. The politics section of this site really sucks because it is overrun with people who are not here to discuss and learn. When you prove they are wrong they suddenly disappear from the thread or close their eyes and just try to shout away the facts. I'm as guilty as anyone when it comes to childish remarks but I have no problem addressing facts nor admitting mistakes. Sites that are over moderated become so damn obsessed with rules it makes the purpose of the board moot, but you can find better discussions than there are on here. So I guess it's all a compromise.
