It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Undoubtedly it is in fact that lizard brain response. We like to think we're above that but we're barely better than the rest of the animals sometimes.

we're all just monkeys, man.

We like to think that having technology and access to all this information makes us superior, but we're all just lizard brain monkeys no further divorced from our violent and chaotic past than that of our simian ancestors. Put a group of people in a room, then single someone out, and watch the mob work.

We're all just fuckin' monkeys, man.
