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.

We have laws which force people to wear helmets, and wear seat belts. These are common sense laws to prevent people from killing themselves. Nobody bats an eye.
This is the example I'd use during covid when people were complaining about masks being against their rights, even when it would protect them from being sick.
My guy, you're someone who wouldn't wear a helmet if the laws had only just changed to enforce them. You're a hazard to yourself.
Buh muh rightzz!!
