No - the point is that, like any other "elected" position, you need to shut up about your actual opinions, recite platitudes, and kss babies. NEVER reveal your true intentions to make the world a better place, or you will be shot down.

Think about it like this - I think that AfD is a cesspool, and I have no interest in closing debates. I don't want to be attacks for making judgement calls the way that Tony is. So, to parallel your experience, if I said that I don't want to close AfD debates, I assume that people would say "he doesn't want AfD debates to ever get closed, he wants them to stay open forever". :)
What's wrong with keeping them open forever? If that were to happen we wouldn't need VfU, and the work would be cut in half.
