Please don't ban Imp again, or at least not for months like his last ban. By starting with the conclusion every single time and working backwards, he makes it clear how ridiculous identity politics can get. If anything, he helps all the rest of us think through situations individually and not in terms of stereotypes...if only because, in the back of our minds, we have a little voice saying "That reflex assumption you just made sounds a bit like Imp".
Yeah, sure, a bit. I get that argument. However, I can't make the dude the exception to the rules forever, especially when he knows he can change the comment to rescind the ban, and openly refuses.
