It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

I agree, it did try and spin it that way. But I lived in the inner west (with young kids) and safety to me on a bike seems simply impossible there.
