No one cares how long it has existed. When it can be used by a censorious unprincipled coward, then it was obviously a bad rule to begin with.
I stated what the valid reasons are a mod would have to censor a user. If any moderator on here is doing more than that (which unfortunately many do) then they shouldn't be a mod.
This is one of the exact arguments Redditors use to ban wrongthink. You should not be a mod on this site, much less this forum, which oversees conspiracies, a topic which delves heavily into censorship, tyranny, propaganda, manipulation, and control of information sharing. If you can't get the basics right, you don't belong here, and you shouldn't moderate this place.
You're not understanding. Upon reading the other comments, I didn't realize you're a woman, and your position now makes sense. Please don't mistake what I'm saying. I don't hate you because you're a woman, nor do I hate you, it's just that you're in a position you shouldn't be in, because your feminine nature gets in the way of the responsibilities necessary here, which is leading to severe mistakes in how you're carrying out those responsibilities.
Women shouldn't be in positions of authority, even with regard to moderating free speech forums. Women, by their nature, prioritize the feminine ideals. Feminine ideals are things like life, empathy, and peace. Masculine ideals are truth and logic, no matter how dangerous or uncomfortable they are. Men and women are hardcoded to these ideals, such that it's shaped our bodies and ways of thinking. Men are bigger and stronger, and capable of espousing dangerous truths which can get us ostracized from society, and we can physically fight and enforce our will upon others. Women are incapable of this violence, and thus abdicate to those with power over them, and in group dynamics always seek to promote peace and harmony over conflict, even though conflict is sometimes necessary.
Philosophically, and practically, truth must hold a higher priority over life, because if you prioritize life over truth, the first casualty is truth, and then inevitably life. Examples abound to prove this, currently and historically.
This is why all stable groups, regardless of size or purpose, are naturally patriarchal, because men embody the necessary priorities to the natural order of existence (truth over life). Women invert the natural order when placed into positions of power (by insisting on life over truth), which is why women are almost universally bad leaders, and why feminism is so destructive.
Look at your arguments under this post. You want us to self censor our own speech so we're not "tracked by the system/AI", and if not, you'll censor it for us, to "protect us", in an attempt to create a peaceful and harmonious space. You're appealing to safety, an inherently feminine virtue, which itself prioritizes life over truth. You don't want us to get hurt. Your maternal instincts are overriding the clear truth of the matter. You're censoring a (supposedly) free speech forum under false pretenses and bad arguments, enforcing censorial dictates by extremely evil and corrupt rulers by proxy, in a forum who's very purpose is to reveal and discuss those people, their evil, their behavior, their lies, their censorship, and their manipulation.
The explosion in red pilling of people the last several years wasn't because truth tells self censored. It's because we refuse to self censor or be censored. We speak the truth, regardless of how uncomfortable it makes people, regardless of how dangerous it is, regardless of how ingrained and propagandized people are to reject it and think it "hateful".
Truth over life.
Any other direction or argument is fallacious, destructive, and serves the interests of the people in power.
I say this earnestly: if you truly valued this community and its purpose, you should step down as moderator, because your own feminine nature (which isn't inherently wrong, when properly ordered) is getting in the way. You're not a bad person, or a bad woman, you're just not suited to properly moderate a free speech forum.
Again... Here you are deciding where people can say what. Which is inherently the problem. This is the kind of moderation that people left other sites to avoid. Woman-brain is preventing you from acknowledging this.

There are other places to talk the way you and others have suggested and I suggest you go there then.

I'm trying something new: https://communities.win/c/Conspiracies/p/1ARwwpmpWw/free-for-all-poststhreads/c
Here's a thought: go make your own forum and then censor as much as you like.

The previous mods enforcing this rule were male.
Then they suffered from gay womanish tendencies and sensibilities as well.
