Sir Tim Berners Lee crested the web for the purposes of sharing information. So far it’s pretty good at that.
As to controlling it… not really it’s far too multifaceted for that to be possible.

@justanothername If a question truly IS simply a matter of opinion--favorite color, cut of clothing, style of furniture, is someone attractive--fine.
If it's evidence based--and this is even used in writing about art, etc., that's a step further, and unsupported opinions should be weighted ~0.
Things with definite answers...well, we see ppl here all the time trying to argue that it's their right to believe 1 + 1 = 3 and NOT be laughed at/told that they are fools. A forum to emit your opinion doesn't mean your opinion is reasonable, correct, etc., and it us no guarantee of acceptance of said opinion.

@SomeMichGuy unless you are voicing your opinion about something you don’t like or do like. It’s like giving feedback when you have received poor service from a shop. Some people take offense to getting bad feedback rather than looking at the feedback and saying hey what can we do better next time.
