Apr 23, 2019 at 16:09 comment added LаngLаngС Please be sure to update your post according to standards of civility. And include a link to your Area51 proposal, as that might be right thing after all, if there is "high demand" for such a folk-wisdom/grassroots whatever SE // it might be a valuable thought that gives this meta-post a bit more reason/sensibility above & beyond "breaking up" (or did you mean tearing down?): just start your own schul, SE is free enough for such an idea to be tested?

Apr 22, 2019 at 18:03 comment added Carey Gregory Mod @user1258361 I strongly suggest you review the Code of Conduct and begin abiding by it.
Apr 22, 2019 at 18:02 comment added user1258361 Except that the evidence suggests that a lot of people share my view and are also being censored to give the impression that the party line is unanimous and absolute.
Apr 22, 2019 at 18:01 comment added Narusan This is one other example you brought up, which has -1 votes. There are quite a few meta posts with a significantly larger number of votes, and by a democratic process, this has been determined as side guideline. You don’t need to throw in totalitarianism and censorship, just because people don’t share your opinion and don’t let them be published doesn’t mean it’s totalitarian.
Apr 22, 2019 at 17:43 comment added user1258361 Fact check against Fake News Carey: There's significant demand for splitting off a help-oriented exchange according to this meta post (medicalsciences.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/1065/…) where supposedly a quarter of questions here are being closed for being "off-topic", largely dominated by help and advice requests. So no, this rant is not my "sole opinion". The only reason why the "entire community" agrees with the totalitarian party line is that everyone else has been exiled or censored.
Apr 22, 2019 at 17:06 comment added Carey Gregory Mod As suggested below, if you want a medical advice forum then head over to Area51 and propose it because as explained here, your opinion isn't going to change a policy adopted by the entire community long ago.
Apr 22, 2019 at 17:06 comment added Carey Gregory Mod This is a subject as old as the site, and the community decided long ago not to allow medical advice questions. The decision was nearly unanimous and has been re-debated multiple times, each time with the same decision. You would know this if you had participated in the discussions, or at least read them and understood the reasoning. This rant is your sole opinion. Unfortunately, the community doesn't agree with you.
Apr 22, 2019 at 15:32 comment added Bryan Krause Mod Did you read the rest of my comment? I didn't mean the critique of your tone to be a critique of your argument: your argument can be easily critiqued in other ways (which I did). Rather, I meant is as a helpful suggestion for you to make your argument in a more constructive way.
Apr 22, 2019 at 15:30 comment added user1258361 Criticizing "tone" is the last resort of those who have no valid argument, seeking only unconstructive means to shut down the opposition.

Apr 22, 2019 at 14:55 comment added Bryan Krause Mod This post has an incredibly unproductive tone, and is completely unsupported by examples. A "medical freedom" stack exchange focused on answering personal medical questions, which seems to be what you are suggesting, would A) Not be frequented by legitimate physicians and healthcare professionals, because it would be against the ethics of their fields, and B) Therefore be as bad a place for medical advice as any other place on the internet. This has been discussed numerous times with a much more productive tone than you've offered here.
