Since we don't seem to have that here, you're telling me POAL has no place for open and honest debate where you are free to speak your mind, bring receips, discuss and debate their truth, think for yourselves?
Didn't say that. I said what was required for. You may expand on that of your own accord but don't attribute it to me.
You must succumb to the authoritative sub owner's biases, misconceptions, opinions and untruths or GTFO? Or have I misunderstood your statement?
Make your own sub, your own rules, make it more open. It's not le ebin authoritative (funny how you just have to slip that attack on Authoritarian in there when it doesn't fit) it's following the fucking rules. As I laid out in my prior reply: it does not run counter to free speech to ban posts about alligators in a bicycle sub. Even the government can do that in government run groups that are about a certain topic and that would not be against the 1st.
What you're advocating for is complete freedom of speech. Which is bad. Fully bad. For everything, even high-trust society. The interesting thing is that distinction is meaningless in a high-trust society because it will self-police unwelcome speech out. Poal has that, it has the by sub mods / owners being able to police their sub how they want but the admin not having a necessary say in it.
Read sub's (especially the default ones) sidebar rules before posting.
There. Done. "this is not a free speech sub". The TOS fully allows that as it's not advocating for anything illegal.
I'm advocating for free and fair debate and discussion, not like your examples of 100% free speech. Speech on topic, with facts without fear of oppression. If sub owners create an environment antithetical to that, besmirch Q with fake facts, crap on me and others for supporting Q within it, it seems that my free speech is being infringed upon. The sub owner already has me blocked, I assume because of Q. You know BANKSTER_COMMANDO would ban me as soon as I start ripping apart his "facts" or challenging his "opinion" or say anything he can twist into breaking the sub rules. I won't give him the pleasure.
Make your own sub, your own rules, make it more open.
I don't have to, 98% of the subs on POAL fit that bill already. Open to discussion and debate.
