How does it stop you from making a post with your opinion ? It doesn't. You could share your view if you wanted but you obviously don't even want to if you won't just make a post about your POV. This is like a group of people at a party who are having a conversation and ignoring you. People who will be rolling their eyes pretty hard if you accuse them of putting tape over your mouth.

No, but it stops the comment being organised in a tree with all the others which would be kinda disruptive.

No, it's more like a group of wizards/witches at a party who are having a conversation and have me under a magic spell so I can't say anything in response to what they say even to a different person.

The filter feature would be like what you describe.

EDIT: Actually, that's not what the filter on Hubski does. I was wrong.
