About
The Argument Room, a 12-pound brainchild born in early 2010, is a place to argue on the internet(s). It is based on the fundamental principle that humans are hard-headed, self-righteous, and obnoxious bigots who take a sick, sadistic pleasure in proving other people wrong.
Powered by Django, a Python web framework, TAR will be a social, minimalist application with a clean user interface, designed to make it as easy as possible to have fulfilling, intellectual arguments about relevant issues. It is currently under heavy construction, but much of its functionality is already in place, and hopefully will be available soon. Follow us on Twitter to find out when.

20112012. Or something.

- Q: Will there be any taboo subjects, forbidden to be discussed?
- A: In the name of philosophical purity, no. However, being intentionally insulting, racist, crude, etc. will not be permitted, without serious arguments to back what you are saying. If you say something like "women should always work at home, and this is why blah blah blah", you will be strongly challenged by other users, but not banned.
