There's some censorship going on in the newly popular feminist subs and it needs to be openly addressed.

whatever happened to "if you don't like something don't look at it"?

It's still alive and well. If you don't like a comment someone made on /s/GenderCritical, hide it and move on. If the sub is on /s/all, the sub is not a safe space, and exists for all users on Saidit. If that's not what the users of /s/GenderCritical want, all you have to do is remove yourselves from /s/all, and you can be as exclusive as you like.

Saidit was created to combat exclusion and censorship. You came here for that very acceptance of diverse viewpoints, so that's what you're getting. You can't have your cake and eat it too.

BUT the question we need to address is: should be the moderators be permitted to go and exclude comments that were posted while the sub was still appearing on /all?

Stuff appearing in /all can be read by anyone. It's pretty standard for users on reddit-like sites to check the sub sidebar for posting rules.

That said, a way to list content of all subs that adhere to some common set of rules would be useful. For example, a "debate" option to go next to "all", "subscribed".

Relevance?
