He wrote about it.

But encouraging?

He engaged in sex with under aged servants, male and female. In the insane asylum he had an affair with a 14 year old girl. There is a reason it is called sadism. He was insane and a pedophile. His personal life was very much like his writings. A very sick puppy. Torture of prostitutes. One young girls father went to retrieve and took at shot at him but gun misfired.

Using sex as a metaphor for political thinking is one thing. Writing about murdering and sodomizing children is another.
 
Everyone knows theres 2 things you dont talk about with strangers: politics and religion.

On a website based on sin, its an attempt to keep politics away from everything else.
 
Yes side off to an initial slow start but has since gained ground.
 
On September 22nd or therabouts Laurel stated quite clearly in a post on the AH that posters to other boards should put political threads on the Politics Board.

However, she also clearly stated that GBr's could post political threads on the GB if they preferred to do so.

A bit ironic considering that the Politics Board was birthed, debated, and voted on by the GB alone and then applied everywhere except the GB - but it's her call.

Anyway considering that the politics board frequently has less posters than the poetry board it's pretty much a dead duck.

I would hope it does have far less members.

Politics not art

Poetry/Lit/Art creative and imaginative

Politics not usually if ever.

I'm here for Lit, this is just a sideline for me. I would come to Lit if politics was not allowed.
 
Seriously , guys, I 'd love to have serious political discussions, but the politics board seem to be more an agitation board. People here have opinions and will die with it.

Off course, that's boring.

Sorry, but this was common at that time. Read Casanova's memoires.

Yes, he was sick. And privileged.

But again: encouraging?

You can write about very bad things without encouraging people to do these things.
