As I see it, this is sort of like that quote on truth that goes something like "You may as well acknowledge the truth - you're already dealing with it."
Censorship was already happening on LessWrong. Now that Eliezer is making an effort to share some of his decision-making process, there is less to fear in a way since you get to have that additional info for guessing what he's likely to do.
Fear of the unknown can feel a lot worse than fear of the known.
I think you mean the Litany of Gendlin, and I believe some of these rules are being newly implemented, but I could be wrong about that.
He can run his site anyway he wants, and most of the ideas here are reasonable precautions given his values. That doesn't change the fact that I intuitively don't like them when I read them, and that gut reaction (or possibly it's opposite) is probably shared with others here who probably allow it to color their arguments one way or the other. Just something to keep in mind, is all.
Oh thank you. I kept wondering what that quote was.
Oh, that is a good point.
I was trying to make you feel better.
