Guess we will have to agree to disagree, I believe natural selective processes produce the best views, if your views are never challenged and gaining strength through debate and contact with the enemy, you end up spouting low quality Boomer shit.
Nobody is intellectually hiding out in their private sub-clubs.
Debate happens everywhere on poal, and we can all sharpen our wits to our hearts desire. Some people are just verbal street-shitters, and perhaps not every street needs shit scattered everywhere.
I never agree to disagree. You are partially wrong: I agree with your argument in general, but I don't think it means a sub-owner can't curate his own sub's users.
Where as, I believe curation is only valuable if it too is in good faith. The Reddit problem was sub owners curating not for quality and on topic behavior, but for ideological purity.
And a sub that is curated for ideological purity attracts intellectual dindus because they like to hide from any space where they might get called out. Enforced safe spaces only provide safety for brainlets, while stifling my access to worthwhile conversationalists behind a shit wall of one sentence circle jerk comments upvoted by subhuman knuckle draggers.
You're making a bunch of universal claims that are true something but other times they aren't.
Why do you want access to a conversation attracting and breeding only brainlets?
Wouldn't you just let users self-immolate?
If it's contained, why care? Do you love poal that much? You know poal won't stand the test of time. By the pattern of every other free speech site, I'd say we have 2.5 years until these streets are too much covered in shit.
