subs only have to tolerate it if it's on topic and in good faith. it seems that jason got banned after an on-topic good faith argument with a mod took a turn for the worse.

if a sub really wants to keep out dissenting opinion, it needs to be clearly stated in the sub rules, like /s/incels does (rule 3)

edit: imo. this is my interpretation on the existing policy, it's not up to me.

I agree with this, but then I think maybe the 'show on /all' box should then be unchecked for the sub, also similar to incels. Maybe we could make this official policy if you agree.

Fine with me, I donno what's best. This is the old "changing topics with sub rules" discussion from the mod rules launch.

Alright we'll give it a try then. Maybe once we get the similar 'show on /new' sub checkbox, we can add it to that same rule
