Historical note, as I understand things-- the emotionally abusive power grab aspects didn't happen by coincidence. A good many people said that if they were polite and reasonable, what they said got ignored, so they started dumping rage.

And then they complain when anybody else is 'uncivil'.

I called it an emotionally abusive power grab because that's how I see it.

Nonetheless, I still think they're right about some of their issues.
