Commenting Policy

Vigorous debate is key to the North Star project. To that end, we moderate the comments that appear on the site. Our rules are as follows:

1. Do not repost comments, which may be delayed as they are approved.
2. Stay on topic.
3. Engage substantively. No one-liners or snarkiness for its own sake.
4. Back up your arguments with credible evidence.
5. Do not post ad hominem attacks, threats, slurs, slander, abuse, or spam. Racism, sexism, homophobia, and transphobia will not be tolerated.

Commenting privileges may be revoked for users who persistently break these rules. The North Star reserves the right to amend this policy at any time.
