Platypi

This is a sister thread to the catalog of misinformation. The purpose behind this is to provide relevant terminology and general information on the topic in one area. 

It may be updated at my convenience as I go along. 

I will be addressing real conversations from this community and doing my best to make an address after the conversation has settled.  

The intent of this exercise is to promote healthy and relevant discussion on a topic many have taken interest in debating.  I have no political affiliation besides loyalty to my fellow citizens, no financial interest, and no professional pressure influencing my writing.  While it is nice that there aren't a lot of sources of bias to impart, I also don't have any real accountability and I am limited by my experience.  To offset any shortcoming, critical review is necessary.  There is no reason to treat the information as an authoritative reference.  It's aimed to help people convey their intentions in a way that others can relate to.

Engagement is encouraged.  If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
