Why do you want to silence “outside” voices in this discussion?
I think his point is that since you never post in politics, then you have no idea what goes on there. how can you judge something that you are never involved in?

I think that most of the posters who are against this dont want to see it turn into unchained/p7 where totally disingenuous trolling took over after the nazi rally and heather heyer death. they think that reflects poorly on the forum and they dont want to be involved in a forum where ppl advocate for such things.
they dont want to mention to their real life friends and acquaintances or other internet forum friends that they frequent 2p2 when there is a forum where non-negligible numbers of posters are aggressively against the rights of muslims, lgbt, and minorities.
me personally I dont care and I do kind of like interacting with the deplorables. you guys have done a ton to shape my world view. I also kind of thought that fly was a bit off his rocker with all of his posts claiming that large portions of the country are racist and that is the number one ideology of many people. interacting with people like you and wil and bitchi and ts made me realize that I was immeasurably wrong and that ofc fly was right.
