I upvoted your comment prospectively. That is, it'll be worth an upvote when you edit out the passive aggressive intro and I'm being optimistic. :)

Sorry, but I don't feel that I have this freedom on LW. And I feel people moralize here especially using the downvote function.

We do. Not all the downvoting is moralizing but a significant subset is. And not all the moralizing is undesirable to me, even though a significant subset is.

For what it is worth, believing the WTC was loaded with explosives really is insane.
