I bet you're getting plenty of downvotes from the Yanks.

Do elaborate on that first paragraph though please, I'm bursting with curiosity about what makes you see it that way.

The part I didn't say?

I see quite a few US TV shows where people make an effort to prevent others from talking.

The most interesting conversation to be had is with someone you disagree with. These people are completely missing out. In stead they are focused on shaping an uninformed narrative.

Maybe the downvotes are because of the jokes about assault?
