I read somewhere, and can't produce it for a quick Google, that people tend to be conservative in fields of their expertise, and more liberal otherwise.

GamerGate just passed me by. Ain't got no time for gamin'.

How does the interface allow everyone to edit, browse the edits, and filter the edits such that the true sphincter-boys and -girls can still have their say, and also be totally attenuated?
That, I submit, is the UI challenge. Silence no one, but let idiocy itself get squelched.

Did the interpreter feel better when it quit hurting?

I should probably also afford you some kudos. This far into a thread, you haven't laid some wild accusation of unreasonable behavior at my feet. Too soon to get excited about your readiness to rejoin society, however.

The last time I thought about community college, I was wondering to myself if I could convince the wife to move out west, where I'm from, and live a relaxed rural existence and teach a little Comp Sci at SWOCC. Perhaps you've confused me with another of your compadres.

What an awesome piece of work this thread is! You've got your manure spreader blazing along all full tilt boogie, and accuse me of obfuscating! A gold medal crapflooder you are on this one!

Holding an undergraduate engineering degree and two master's as I do, this is just another one of your sweet, erroneous trolls. You stay beautiful!

The Commies have engaged in a slow, deliberate attempt at a takeover since the 60s, and have substantially, but not totally, succeeded.

So let me get this "straight": are you advocating pure amorality as the only means of escaping a kind of "we will enforce what we want to enforce" moral singularity?
It may shock you, but I'm quite content to view the federal Constitution through a purely libertarian lens. But we need to prevent leaky abstractions in the object model. Individual, private citizens should be opaque above the 57 States, and we should offload the non-Enumerated, Progressive aspects of our Federal government.
However, it's highly doubtful that you have the intellectual fortitude to carry the thought through to conclusion, much less the fortitude to support its implementation.

What, precisely, do you think was even semi-conservative about the notion of raping all of the 529 accounts to offer a community college freebie?

Well, truly: a full-on Civil War, itself, would be as welcome as Lincoln's Constitutional freelancing. But I can't go expecting a valid, balanced approach to evaluation from you, now can I?

Well, were this wild hypothetical somehow instantiated, I guess we'd have to start with tracking you down in the real world and just screwing with you for sheer recreation.
As far as "needful" goes, one good approach for starters would be to begin with the overcriminalization problem and just work backward. That is, there is plenty of good thought by sane people in circulation on the topic. It's a going-in position.
What's your next diversion? Do you shoot the messenger? Do you claim that "love is hate, peace is war" and any conservative approach is really just tyranny?

Some of us fetish learning things. Haskell really makes you reconsider things, for all I still haven't accomplished anything non-trivial in it.

What about the historical fact that Lincoln was a Republican?
