To begin with, indeed everybody is to be biased, in the end=E2=80=A6 but wh= at kind of =
bias? Someone not having signed might as well be *anywhere* in the spectrum =
between the Joint statement and RMS himself. Hence this is less evidently =
biased, as anyone could be, in this =E2=80=94unfortunately heated=E2=80=94 = dispute be more =
=E2=80=9Cneutral=E2=80=9D, less extreme or =E2=80=9Cbiased=E2=80=9D as you.

Afaik, this was a place of lax moderation, until then. *Adding* moderators= is =
likely to go in the (until then denounced) direction of growing censorship,= a =
direction that might be biased against one party or another. That could ve= ry =
well go in censorship escalation into muting everybody. Or maybe they migh= t =
be less prone to censor?
Afaiu, adding moderator is likely to make an inclusive OR of decisions, tha= t =
is a sum of censorship. It would be reassuring to hear it=E2=80=99s going = to be an =
AND, so it=E2=80=99s a *product* of censorship (you would agree on moderati= on and only =
censor those you both agree to put moderation on).

On a governance thread. And even so, then we can freely attack people if =
we=E2=80=99re not anymore talking about governance in the same mail (you sh= ould =
release more mails then), and discuss about governance however we want if w= e =
don=E2=80=99t talk about specific people, right?
