People making complaints aren't necessarily acting in bad faith. 3. If we don't set the expectation ahead of time that we remain pluralistic in terms of political philosophy, culture, then it is way too easy to end up in a situation where people are bringing up bad press for failing to kick out people who disagree with them.
