I don’t have time to write it in detail, but basically I’m referring to two ideas here regarding what a user sees:
If determined by the trust graph of forum moderators, it’d contribute to groupthink because dissenting voices will be silenced.
If decided by the user’s trust graph, you’ll get polarization because opposing groups won’t see each other’s content.
Both lead to gatekeeping because new users aren’t trusted by anyone so their content can’t get through.
