Write at LW, of course; it's the only community site I can be bothered to monitor!

Lol. Seriously, I both respect your thoughts and convictions and just like your online persona; I've now read much of your site and while TBH I found some of the more ideological stuff either unclear/in bad faith (heh) or simply disagreeable from my own partisan perspective (I'm 60% socialist, 20% mainstream liberal, 15% conservative and 5% fascist, which adds up to be pretty damn statist and collectivist), a lot is of LW discussion quality. I'm also very OK with your style, even if you could benefit from much subtler signaling and more roundabout praise of tribal values on occasion.

'd be happy to see more of your views, to contemptate and maybe oppose, at ANY decent-status website, especially one where there's a lot of folks closer to my worldview than yours; you give good food for thought and discussion both when it's contrarian or non-partisan.

I agree with you that a site like In Mala Fide can also generate interesting thoughts and the right sort of controversy, but many of us just can't stomach sifting through it all to find something worth thinking about - especially when 90% of articles contain invective aimed at the "leftists", "feminists" or other such nebulous groups that a guy like me can often identify with, under a very different self-perception than the sincere or trolling contrarian writing the article.
