The concept of having entirely open discussion is why I like Twitter. YOU design the content that you want to see by picking who can contribute to it. When you see something that you want to talk about, you can openly discuss or even contest that viewpoint right then and there. Yes, this means it's open to harassment but so is every medium that allows public conversation. If you frequently find yourself under scrutiny for your points, grow thicker skin, form a better argument, or reevaluate what you're saying in a public environment on the internet.
