Primarily to cover our asses. Secondly, we do discuss things that are outside of acceptability, like /f/illegalism which would not be appropriate for people in the younger end.

Again, this feels blatantly discriminatory. Unless there's some more cover-our-asses logic there I'm missing, that's pretty openly ageist gatekeeping.

apologies for late reply.

I don't mean to attack you in particular, or act entitled to any sort of labor. Just pointing it out.

Well, I shouldn't admit it if I were, should I? And if I weren't, maybe I'd be speaking from my own past experiences of humiliation and degradation being treated and viewed by the world like that. It's not like there's ever a stable body of people that can maintain any sort of constant identity to speak from here.
