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.

@freemo @trinsec @khird @_foxaru I liked the "stem community" phrasing as an important pointer to why speech would be allowed, but not so much the "bad faith". Intentions matter but impact does also. Not sure that a psychopath ever acts in "bad faith". (But discount my opinions due to only being here about a week.)

yea i guess bad faith here isnt about intentions, its about saying you cant discuss it in a manner that demonstrates your trying to argue for its adoption.
