Good faith is the key here. I'm all for disagreements leading to lengthy discussions and even some controversy as long as everyone is arguing in good faith.
I can't stand trolling, outright bigotry, and the normalization of literal fascist opinions as a mere "disagreement". If a "disagreement" (you know which ones I mean) will lead to people dying if enabled, I'm pretty happy keeping those ideas out.
Gender critical ideas are based on truth and reality. If those ideas are censored here that would be terrible.
That's the beautiful thing about being a federated platform. You can create your own island and fill it with all the hatred and bad "science" you want. it's worked for the British for centuries.
No hatred here. Just leave the kids and women spaces alone.
