The "we" refers to the IMC editors, who control content on the Features page of this website. The purpose of their new policy is to help better decide what constitutes open discussion and what constitutes an attempt to disrupt open discussion. Opinions contrary to those of the IMC are welcome on this newswire; that's its purpose. What's unwelcome is spam, cointelpro, and other material designed specifically to either drown out discussion on the newswire, or to have the forum taken offline by stlimc's net provider.

Certainly, there are grey areas with this policy, and deciding on such grey areas is the editors' privilege, since they pay the bills for this site.
