Does putting your posts in between spoiler flags just to be annoying, count as 'civil'?  Because I'd say that's just flat out trolling rather than 'protest'.

I will continue to blackout my posts.  Regardless if you find it infantile or not.

It is your chosen method of delivery (tone and wording) that brings you grief, not your perspective, values, or views. This is an important distinction.

My Senior manager told me once:  Never write a letter, nor send an electronic message that you could compromise yourself or confuse your intended recipient.  As attitude or expressed meanings are difficult to convey on paper.

That rule is difficult to abide by via this medium, but the advice is suitable in this context none the less.
