What possible evidence is there for real concern, what is the consequence, who has seen any of this? You may feel concerned but that doesn't make it a real concern.
Don't conflate "no rules" with "this selected enforcement of rule 1". This again seems like trying to tie in unrelated concerns in attempt to strengthen the point being made here. Also, what do you mean by infighting, and why is that concerning? People should be fighting within this board, that's how the best ideas win. We're not a bloc. Is not calling people mean names going to suddenly make them get along? It seems absurd
Google has been flagging speech for years, (youtube anyone?) the US gov is now partnered with Palantir and Oracle and in states police are using things like Gotham for crime monitoring and we're practically living in 'Minority Report'.
Yep, that they are, Palantir and Oracle are analyzing the threat you pose, not if you're using unsavory language online. Your presence here is much more damning than calling someone a fag
It's not pretense, it's real concern.
Without rule 1 the infighting gets ridiculous and without rules some people create chaos.

We fight whose views?
Whoever has the opposing view.

Looks like I'll have to make rule 1 exceptions for free for all threads marked nsfw or something.
