A place where controversial stuff can go. Threads like my transgender one could go there. Things that invite controversy. A place free of your Jedi ToS. Like... A place OUTSIDE the Temple walls? Like a cantina for all the drunks, gamblers, bounty hunters, Sith, ect. A place of neutral ground.
A place outside the temple walls is, by definition, a place not in the temple, ie not on this site, ie another site. You're welcome to have this cantina on another site and invite people to join you there. I may even get the first round in!
Hmmm... An unofficial totjo cantina, kept outside these walls. Could it be linked here? Even promoted?

You'd struggle to have it officially linked I think. But no reason why you couldn't tell people about it. you could probably link to it in your signature for those that want access to it

Such a unique idea... I'll be pondering it for certain.
Still, I think my original idea is with considering.

So, you mean, like a forum outside of TotJO? Because anyone here is completely free to go out and start their own forum, you know. :laugh:
By the way, this idea has been proposed several times over the past years. The best conclusion is what Gisteron pointed out.
The pessimist complains about the wind;
The optimist expects it to change;
The realist adjusts the sails.

You won't get a subforum on this site that is free of the ToS. The ToS applies to the entire site.
What you're asking for isn't that far off walking into a Christian Church and asking for them to build you a small room in the far corner where you can go to worship Satan :laugh:

Why not? I can just cry they aren't being inclusive of my religious liberties. :laugh:
Silliness aside, I'm not asking for a Sith cantina, though that would be awesome. No, I'm asking for a subforum where people can discuss controversial matters, fight, rant... whatever, without all this "empathetic listening" and so on. It would keep all this type of content to that forum only, hence the benefit.

Back in the good old days (pre 2017) that's what this entire forum was, until everyone got chased away or just gave up (myself included).
I love a good discussion on a controversial topic, but I'm not sure it would be as snarky/fighty/ranty as you'd actually like it to be. I mean, if it were a Sith forum then yes there would be plenty of snark, but for the majority of Jedi here who can deal with discussing the kind of topics you want, we're pretty good at keeping things relatively calm and rational.
