I am considering adding the following phrasing to QOTO’s ToC.. Before I do I’d like some feedback from the community
While QOTO aims to provide a community where our users do not fear being punished for their personal opinions, that does not mean we allow people to disseminate ideologies that are abusive or violent towards others. Demonstrating support for or defending ideologies known to be violent or hateful is a bannable offense. This includes, but is not limited to: racial supremacy, anti-LGBTQ or anti-cis-gender/anti-straight, pro-genocide, child abuse or child pornography, etc. While we allow questions and conversation regarding these topics in general, doing so in bad faith will result in immediate expulsion.
I tweaked it to this:

@freemo @Alaskanviking @trinsec @khird I would split the first sentence into two, avoiding to weaken both parts.
How about:
โQOTO aims to provide a community where our users do not fear being punished for their personal opinions. We do not allow people to disseminate ideologies that are abusive or violent towards others.โ
@freemo @Alaskanviking @trinsec @khird
(…) pro-genocide, child abuse or child pornography, etc.
More wording than anything else:
I haven’t seen people say that “child abuse” is an example of ideology (rather just a description of an act). Do you want to say pro-child abuse and pro-CP there?
@Alaskanviking
The rest of the about does that, but ill throw itt in.
