When I occasionally visit The Attic and see the hate and lack of ability to have a conversation, I simply shake my head and hope lots of those individuals do not reproduce. It's as simple as that. No hope for them. Sad.

I never visit.
If I'm following a thread the winds up there I usually quit following it.

Correct, no hope.

Yea Vlad, me too. I saw some who are the other threads. I was only there for a few minutes and I read some of the posts and was saddening to me. Not because I did not agree with their opinions but how easily they can be manipulated into a belief system.
It reminds of this story I read this morning and I may post it here. About a FAD from 1939 when some college kid swallowed a live gold fish as a joke and challenge. I do remember this from years gone by BUT ! reading the history of it this became a TREND and was accepted all over the place even a worlds record of how many fish a person could swallow !!!! Good Lord, like sheep to the slaughter the drones line up eat up all the BS fed to them.
I even laugh at the camera posts about this model and that one being better and this and that, O yea, the RAW and JPEG discussions ? Well there are good points if we can sort out the real stuff from the BS.
Anyway Vlad, thanks for the reply, I did not think it get this far.

Unless there are a significant number of people in the population whose IQ is exactly average. Then there are fewer than 50% that are below average and and fewer than 50% above average.

I can see why it is there.
I saw mostly politically opinionated stupidity beyond disturbing. I thought it is shocking that people that should be mature, intelligent and open minded aware of realities in our world and country posting the stupidity and they vote and they breed !
It is more than the political social aspect but a reflection of how we can easily be manipulated.
Just look at the model vs. model posts here in main topic areas.
Well I wanted to share my experience and if this post winds up there, Ok, so what.

Exactly. The median is a point.

We should never forget that many wars have been fought over differences in the beliefs of religion and politics. Imagine how peaceful the world would be if the opinions of both were kept strictly to oneself.

Most of the emotional folks go to the attic.

Those that feel...more than think.
