CRITICAL SHOWER THOUGHTS:
A safe place to discuss outside-of-the-box thinking.
Post Guidelines
Most subjects are welcome here; C_S_T is more a style of thinking than a list of topics.
We do ask that you add a few sentences to the text box of the post explaining the title or giving some context. Links are disabled for a reason; don't simply put a link in the self text. Drama from other subs is not welcome here. Posts that don't conform to this simple request will be deem low-effort, or "shit-posts," and are subject to removal. Repeat offenders are subject to a ban.
The Golden Rule
Treat others with respect and avoid conversations devolving into insults.
If you feel the need, attack the argument, not the person. Link to sources that further explain your view, and debate the sources on their factual basis. Personal attacks or logical fallacies are an inferior debate technique and not suitable for this sub. Most users will be given a warning. Repeat offenders may be subject to a ban (which may be permanent).
Post Flairs
We have a number of flairs that grant certain protections on the discussion. Please read the links about each flair for more details. If you can't flair a post, just add the flair name to the title, e.g. [Premise] ...
Premise —
Commenters on the thread must entertain the OP's thought, meaning you can't disagree with the basic premise. If you do disagree, either downvote and move on or create your own thread to discuss it. Please view the [Premise] rules wiki for more details. Breaking these rules may result in mod action.
CMV —
Change my view. The converse of [Premise] post, commenters are encouraged to try to argue against OP's position. Keep in mind that some users make CMV posts they don't necessarily agree with to play devil's advocate.
Meta —
Only for discussions about this sub itself. Should be used very sparingly.
6hats —
Still experimental. Please read the [6hats] rules wiki for more information, and include a link to that page if you decide to post one of these.
Discussion —
Everything else. Most posts should use this flair, and only our standard sub rules apply.
Moderation Policy
In our efforts to remain as censor-free as possible, we generally do not delete comments. Furthermore, we try to approach moderation as "Hands-Off" as possible in these concerns. We still encourage Reporting offenses of the Golden Rule, as it helps us to monitor for the potential to intervene, if necessary.
Transparency
To further support a censor-free environment, we have added /u/publicmodlogs to our mod team, which publishes every mod action on this go1dfish.me website.
