Subversive Discourse is a new platform as of July 2020. We’re actively looking for regular, occasional, semi-annual, annual, and one-time contributors who believe in the vision of this site and want to be part of this ongoing conversation. As we grow, we hope to have a diversity of voices represented. Potential contributors need only be thoughtful person who commit to treat all people with dignity amid any important disagreements that might exist.
In terms of the scope of the content, there are only two firm boundaries:
- This platform is not for specifically religious content. That’s literally the only subject that’s categorically off-limits. An exploration of religion as a socio-cultural phenomenon may be explored when it intersects another field like history, but specifically religious content goes on our sister site, The Sacred Humanists.
- We have no pious scruples with a little colorful language. There is a time and a place to employ the linguistic emphasis that only profanity can provide. Yet this is not a platform for shock jocks who habitually spew curse words for no other reason than an attempt to get a rise out of people. We feel that falls within the category of “Oh, get over yourself.” The policy here is to only use profanity when you truly mean it so that it still carries weight when you actually need it.
