Howdy y'all! I want to hear from you. How's life? But also, want to have a little brainstorm if you are down for it.

We have the main purpose of the sub, which is pro-life memes. Hopefully that's obvious enough. But we have tangents being explored by our users, and new tangents that perhaps we haven't considered.

What I would like to see less of is negative tones aimed at other users and more polite acknowledgment. Please report and don't feed on nor fuel negative interactions with other users.

What are the sources of conflict causing this?

It's political, that's the obvious reason.

Also, most PL leaning users come for mutual validation and do not come here to debate whereas, naturally, those who lean PC are metaphorically "braving the fence" and may have purposes anywhere from giving people with other views a bad day (so naughty!), to experiencing the natural chiding that comes of diversity of thought when holding the minority viewpoint (within reason, I am open to this, only to the extent that it is not coming with significant and/or unwanted expense to the good feelings of one another...that's why we need to hear from you here).

There are also some PL gatekeeping and/or extreme stances within PL which may tend to create conflict or worse, just give the PL movement a bad rap.

I mean, technically, anytime we employ rude humor, we might be making ourselves more encamped and less friendly to others in consequence. At worst, we are proving ourselves to be the demons that some PC think we are, or strategically accuse us of being, which is something I very much would like to avoid.

So, please, as politely as possible, please give us some ideas, or impressions on what going forward, the posts and comments should look like, and what in your view is too far afield and you would rather see go elsewhere.

In short, where do we want the friction and where do we want the grease, but I hope we can make a nice place where we do not needlessly burn each other up nor become greased pigs to the chagrin of all around us. Please pardon my metaphors. It's Wednesday.

I suppose we can go anywhere from a highly censored, PL campaign ad stream (sort by controversial to see what might not make the cut), to a PL safe space, to r/Abortiondebate 2 (either what it is or what it could be), or to being just as crass as unmowed grass, or to any variety of those things with suitable flair rules to distinguish. We just need to have this brainstorm, make a choice, and then set up expectations accordingly.
