Controversial - the place to discuss controversial topics

Controversial - the community to discuss controversial topics.

Challenge others opinions and be challenged on your own.

This is not a safe space nor an echo-chamber, you come here to discuss in a civilized way, no flaming, no insults!

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, "trust me bro" is not a valid argument.

Just look at Canada's scandals around MAID and you'll see why allowing it can lead to severe problems including inconvenient people being pressured into choosing suicide.

Granted, I fully acknowledge that. I don't think having state-sponsored suicide is the answer either, just that people need to be able to discuss their feelings freely somehow.
