I came here thinking they want to launch the next right-wing "free speech" platform. But now I'm not so sure any more. Maybe they genuinely think the marketplace of ideas works. And it'll be the right idea coming out victorious... Which might actually happen if we indeed were to do rational and logical arguments.
I'd say be aware they might just not know, how people get targeted for identity. Or face more than moderate disagreements on technology and politics... This is all my speculation but to me it sounds like the genuine perspective of someone who doesn't have a clue of the reality of the community you advocate for.

We aren’t looking for your concern, because we do have moderation in place. Now answer this, why should they not have an opinion? Doesn’t make it right, but we do want to be inclusive for everyone regardless of their outlook on things.
Besides, if enough people actually downvotes the person, it will help teach them about how wrong they are in the subject. People with the right attitude about this will help drown out the recklessness of these haters.
We also require links to sources that back their belief. These have to be reliable sources such as media websites and government websites.

Minorities are outnumbered by definition. Putting minority rights up to majority leads to minorities getting fucked over...

we’re not putting a minority or majority issue in place. We had a meeting this morning, like we do every Sunday. To help mitigate this issue we have removed the ability to reply to posts directly. All opinions posted will not have reply ability by anyone, except Moderators or administration. And that will only be used if/when necessary. We want everyone to be able to voice their opinions without having to put up with people arguing with them on the forum. This was decided among the founder, myself, and our co-founder. We are also updated the description of KAOS and I will be making a post in our community regarding this.
