Community contribution

Good morning, everyone. Overnight, a whackadoodle decided to flood our comment section with repeated demands to “report” this site, while simultaneously promoting their own website, which appears to offer a decidedly one-sided version of the debate. Let's clear up a couple of things. First, self-promotion. We have absolutely no problem with people sharing their own websites, articles, opinions, or competing platforms. We don't care which side of the argument you're on. If you have something to contribute, contribute it. Promote your website in good faith, and we'll happily leave it alone. But repeatedly posting the same self-promotional nonsense, particularly when it's mixed with demands to silence this platform, crosses the line from participation into spam. Second, cancel culture. Calling for the censorship, suppression, or deplatforming of others is fundamentally opposed to everything this website stands for. We believe cancel culture is a plague on society. It poisons public debate, obstructs the pursuit of truth, and undermines the very freedoms of speech and expression that we exist to defend. Our policy is simple: If you use our comment section to organize or encourage the silencing of other voices, your comment will be removed in its entirety. Zero tolerance. We will not selectively edit your words to make them acceptable. Let me be perfectly clear: Your speech belongs to you. Your opinions belong to you. And neither I nor the other administrators gives a damn whether we agree with them. Criticize this website. Insult the administrators. Challenge our arguments. Defend the plaintiff. Defend the defendants. Call us idiots. Post something unpopular, offensive, or downright ridiculous. We don't care. That is precisely why this platform exists: to provide a place where all sides can speak, particularly when other platforms are busy deciding which opinions the public is permitted to hear. But don't confuse our commitment to free expression with an obligation to host repetitive spam or campaigns designed to silence the very discussion we're protecting. And one final point about moderation: We do not casually remove, edit, or restrict comments. In fact, the decision to remove a comment is deliberately difficult. Every administrator must unanimously agree that removal is justified. If even one administrator dissents, the comment stays. Period. That's how seriously we take the principle of free expression, even when that expression is directed against us personally. We're here to encourage debate, not manufacture consensus. We're here to examine competing claims, not dictate conclusions. And we're certainly not here to let the loudest censorship enthusiast decide who gets to speak. Disagree all you want. Argue passionately. Be offensive. Be ridiculous. Just don't turn our forum into your personal spam campaign or your little cancel-culture crusade. Now, back to our regularly scheduled chaos.
