    We need to go farther and force people to actually make left Unity theory

    Well step one to that is making an honest assessment of each sides honest criticism of each other. Thing is I think the current anti-sectarian rule kind of forbids that.

    There's a comment I tried to save but it got deleted, but it basically points out how the rule works now is mods just ban anything that offends anyone. Issue is, substantial criticism usually stings worse than light jeering, so really while the rule is SUPPOSED to allow for polite intellectual disagreement, it doesn't really work out that way cuz that tends to piss people off more than making snide but welling meaning jokes.

      I kind of disagree that snide comments are better because IMO they’re so much worse, especially over years and years of the same stuff. The fact they’re mostly allowed is easily the worst part of the rule, it’s just not strong enough
