I’d love more political debate without censorship from either side. I want to hear every argument either side has, even if the argument is dumb. I want to hear the rebuttals people give for the beliefs I have, because that is the only way to check myself.
I would like regulation for these discussions to be more about personal insults, rather than if an idea is deemed too offensive or not (which is arbitrary to begin with). When a debate devolves into insults, there’s no point in continuing the conversation anyway.
Honestly I think it’s really hard for this to exist because people upvote things they agree with. That inevitably incentivizes unsubstantial “gotcha” comments and dog whistles.

Agreed. It’s sad.
