Intent doesn't matter. It does poison the discussion, and that is not what I come here for. I come here for discussion with a somewhat more professional tone than other fora (like reddit!), and am totally okay with content (including my own!) being removed when it conflicts with that, regardless of intent. (And honestly, "The plan from day one was to make a kinder, gentler imageboard, get acquired, and make the founders rich." does not play with my notions of civility or informed opinion.)
