It may be a free speech issue, but on a deeper level it is an
issue of integrety and character. The site may help to blow off
steam, but the concept promotes discord. It would be better to
teach productive and proactive conflict resolution. In a perfect
world, I guess maybe, but here and now people belittle and
behave badly, especially when it is easy and behind the backs of
others.
When it comes to pettiness what someone else thinks of me is not
my problem, it's theirs.
