Like Bookie I'm not going to dissect and respond to all the various parts of your post, however there are a couple comments I'd like to make.
For people who don't like long posts, be forewarned this is one to skip.
This is obviously a public forum, therefore it is open to members to freely discuss anything they like. However, the question you pose and the way you choose to phrase it will impact the response, or lack thereof, that you receive. This is the dynamic that people have mentioned to you. So if you come off disrepectful, don't expect to get respect in return. Some people get off on the wrong foot when they first join, but by consistently continuing to post, people get a better feel for their personality and they eventually find more and more people interacting with them. Tarshi is absolutely correct in her statement that certain people follow a fairly predictable pattern. That is one of the first things I noted about people with alternate agendas, they tend to start off in a similar fashion, and follow a predicable route. Sadly if you happen to follow that pattern, chances are some people will assume you have an alternate agenda, but again stick around and over time if that's not the case that will become clear.
Two of the three topics you mentioned that you'd like to start threads on have been discussed previously, #2 and #3 have reached the 'beating a dead horse' level on here IMO. That doesn't mean that the topics have no validity, it just means the questions been asked and answered, and answered, and answered... what more could you possibly hope to learn at this point? The first, I don't actually recall a specific thread about that, but frankly I don't get the point in the question in the first place. As for the threads on WW using the N word, there were several of those in the past year, I recall two specifically, I'm sure if you do a search you'll find those and I believe one was active up until a couple months ago. Bumping a thread doesn't make you suspect, the way you interact with people does. I don't go around calling everyone who joins a troll just because they say something I don't happen to like, in fact I use that term carefully. I understand that some people just don't have the best communication skills, or don't have good manners, or maybe they ask what appears to be a stupid question because they really don't know the answer. But in general being respectful in what you do ask, and in the way you reply to others, will make all the difference in how people respond to you.
You seem to believe that people who choose not to respond to a particular topic or post are avoiding the issue, not intelligent enough to discuss it, or are just apathetic to it. That's not necessarily the case, for instance on this thread in particular it may be they simply see no reason to respond to a topic that's been discussed multiple times, or have no desire to reply to the OP because she's suspect at best, or they simply have nothing to say to you. For me personally it's a combination of all three. I've already made my opinion on the OP known, so allow me to say I didn't reply to your post because I don't care for the way you talk to other posters, and that's my right.
You are openly disrespectful to people who have not approached you in a manner befitting disrespect, again my opinion. Therefore, I'm not going to interact with you anywhere on the forum, again my right. So if someone doesn't reply you shouldn't assume they have nothing to say, they may just have nothing to say to you. It wouldn't matter what thread you created, or what question you asked at this point, given the way you've chosen to talk to people like FG and Tony, I'm not wasting my time talking to you. Fortunately for you most of the people here are not that way, they're bigger than I am in that respect. That's another reason I haven't been posting much at all lately, it's not disagreements, debates, or dialogue of the longer term posters, it's several relatively new members that I simply refuse to be pleasant to because of how they choose to treat other members. That's not me avoiding sensitive people, or letting a couple bad apples spoil the whole barrel, that's me choosing to not put myself in a position where I have to be hateful and nasty to anyone on a regular basis, because that just serves no good purpose. Now there are some new members that I think are going to be assets to the forum and I'm not talking about them here, if I've never given you negative rep, I'm not talking to you, and if I had you'd know because I always sign it.
This quote is one of my favorites, and often misattributed to Voltaire. However believing someone has a right to say anything, whether you agree with them or not, is not the same as hoping they will do so politely if possible. I defend freedom of expression, but there are effective and ineffective ways to convey a message. If you express yourself with disrespect, rudeness, or condescension, don't feign shock and surprise when meaningful, productive dialogue does not follow.
