Having MLs dictate anarchist subs' content is just as ridiculous as anarchists dictating ML content.

If this site really cares about opposing sectarianism and infighting and creating a leftist space, it shouldn't make the same kind of mistakes people here often (rightly) criticize platforms like Raddle for. Wide-scale disagreement is one thing, but removing content that one personally disagrees with from communities one didn't build and have no interest in being a part of is too far. It's harmful to a mindset of growth and dialogue to totally clamp down. If everyone on the left just sequesters ourselves off into our own private domains, it forms a significant roadblock to actually taking action on key issues we agree on.

I realize that this sounds like a mean-spirited callout, but if I really thought this site and the people on it are garbage, I wouldn't be staying here and asking like this. Hopefully others can at least see that, even if they disagree with my personal views.
