Doing this bit will stop you from getting banned. It will also give you a chance to listen and learn without getting banned. It will also stop you from accidentally (or purposely?) harming your comrades, preventing you from getting banned. Hexbear is not theory but it can be a decent start so shut up and read and listen and maybe at most ask some simple questions about things and then accept the good answers you get so you can try to learn instead of posting your shit take and thus getting banned.
We go through this cycle once in a while and the folks who survive it are the folks who already have correct takes and the folks who shut up and listen to and learn from the correct takes. If you aren’t sure if you’re the former then make damn sure you’re the latter.
This type of policy stifles freedom of thought.
There is no such thing as people who “already have correct takes” who can be treated with the authority your words imply.
Yes we should all listen more. But we also need to speak so that others may listen and so all can benefit from a diversity of ideas.
Fuck freedom of thought. Think thoughts that don’t attack my comrades or don’t think at all
