Maybe figure a way to dial down the flair or something. One of the first things I saw on the front page was "I will ABSOLUTELY punch Nazis".
I'm not a fan of Nazis, but I don't like violence or the people who support it in cases like this.

- mrbodoia 10y agoI think this speaks to a larger question I'll have to answer, namely what is the threshold for "inappropriate" comments/behavior and how will moderation be enforced? I'm personally inclined to be fairly hands-off, since I think that censorship (particularly when politics is involved) is a slippery slope. But I also agree that no moderation at all can be a turn-off for many users. I'll have to think about what kind of user content policy would strike the best balance.
