What's happening is a conspiracy of silence.
I absolutely agree, and so long as it is discussed calmly and rationally (as in your OP), we may have more people come on side and understand that this is an issue.
But some of the posts here were so over the top in the past year or two were so over the top that I believe that the discussion was lost in the hyperbole promoted by some posters.
I know several FTers who wandered over here and read some of the posts and decided that this was the loonybin (their words). I used to think that this was the tinfoil hat gang, until I overlooked some posts and posters and read the relevant and factual information.
Again, panic attacks are very real. The experiences of many people here are real, and often posted in a factual manner. But some people do seem to enjoy hyperbole, and it is sad to me that the real issues and real experiences are often overshadowed by that hyperbole.
We have an important message to deliver, but the message is being drowned out.
