Sure it is possible. You can be neutral by banning nothing.

Or at the very least only ban something when the authorities literally force you to do so.

Banning nothing is fine if you want your community to die.

In theory, everyone has equal ability to share their opinions and all have equal weight. In reality, you have a lot less influence than someone willing to post 24/7 everywhere they can. The quickest way to drive away reasonable people is to do nothing.
