gollark: That's basically when it's most important even.

gollark: Fascinating. I don't think this excludes civility when discussing controversial stuff.

gollark: Civil is polite and *formal* now?

gollark: I don't know exactly what you're redacting, but it sounds like you're redefining "civil" wrong.

gollark: Free speech *the principle* is at the extreme end something like "you can say anything ever", which doesn't really work, so mostly I think we should have something like "you can say anything legal, civil, and non-horribly-infohazardous".
