There are at least three issues here:
1. Most of us do not agree with the tone of the posting you are probably
referring to. Lists, such as this one, are generally self-regulated.
Sometimes one or two listers make inappropriate or derogatory comments
("flames"). When that happens, all the rest of us can do is remind each
other of the nebulous "netiquette" and carry on.
2. Your comment, whether by design or inadvertance, has actually started a
pretty interesting discussion to which you could probably make a
significant contribution.
3. If you really do wish to leave the list, you will have to send the
message to [log in to unmask], not the list itself. The command (I
think) would be "leave arch-theory" (without the quotes).
