poal is a free speech platform, but people who run sub poals are dictators. AOU allows you to have full control of your subpoal as long as you follow the TOS. ( Sometimes thats not fair because people land really cool subpoals but have subpar IQ and sensitive feelings. ) The only time thats not strictly true is when someone opens a sub poal with the word Poal in it, you have to run it by AOU before he approves. It sucks, but it is what it is. I think more free speech is allowed here than anywhere else on the web. All the subjects you wanna discuss, you can still discuss, just not in their subpoal. I think its kinda funny people have enough power to block people they dont like from their subpoal. Don't worry, unless you start spamming while also being very depressing and annoying, I wont ban you from any of my subpoals. Not impressed whether or not i ban you or not from my sub poals? Nothing of value has been lost or gained? Then you should feel similarly about being blocked from other peoples sub poals, unless you have a real hard on for posting there. I assume you're mad about being blocked from someones subpoal, sounds like what the post is about
