The statement 'On levels beyond our worst nightmare' is a response to a conversation about white supremacists allegedly hijacking the U.S. government, which itself is a reply to a comment on Trump's actions regarding the Smithsonian exhibits on slavery. This constitutes public discourse as it engages with societal issues related to race, governance, and historical representation.

2. Principle 2:

   I will respect the privacy and dignity of others and will not engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech.

3. Principle 3:

   I will use my words and actions to promote understanding, empathy, and compassion.

4. Principle 4:

   I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
