Arguably-polemic userbox modules.

edit

I have seen some userbox modules which seem not to gel with WP:UP#POLEMIC, such as Template:User decent (which implies derisively that America is suddenly indecent), Template:User smart (which implies derisively that America is suddenly dumb), and Template:User think (which implies derisively that America is suddenly unthinking). Do these policies apply to things like that? If not, it's hard to see where the policy starts and ends; I'm wondering if somebody could shed some light on that.

There certainly could be issues with these, which is one of the areas the Miscellany for deletion process is intended to address: What may be nominated for deletion here:...Userboxes (regardless of namespace)... You are welcome to open MFD discussions on any of these that you think need consideration. Listing at MFD will bring a far greater number of eyes to examine these than a discussion here. Good luck.
