It is regulated to the extent that posts should not be directed to personally offend anyone or be particularly explicit in nature. For reference check out the community guidelines http://ipowerproject.com/page/i-power-community-guidelines if you have a doubt about posting something, best speak to Shiznit. 

Not sure why you asked this, Kyle, since you've been a member for a while and should know the answer already... but to quote from the Community Guidelines:  

{which outline several "regulatory" items...}  

Moderation Policy

We reserve the right to remove any content posted. It is true that we as the I Power Crew are often active on fronts where we defend freedom of speech, but for the sake of community management, it is impossible to allow for absolute freedom of speech on a social network. I Power has always been to some extent a curated platform. We reserve the right to remove content that is deemed irrelevant or counter-productive to the focus and goals of the site.

.

And while public debate regarding Moderation decisions and the Community Guidelines themselves is not permitted, there have been a few posts about this subject in the past.  

These are a couple of my own: 

My Views on Tolerance & Moderation

I-Power and Censorship on the Internet

.

And, of course, I-Power's major themes have always been Self-Development; Activism, {which can generally include sociology & politics;} and topics that relate to Science & Technology.

"Interesting. I think that just being aware that our behavior is not always justified and taking on some personal responsibility can go a long way."

Lore replied to Lore's discussion Condemning others to validate ourselves.
"Maybe I take empathy and attempting to understand such actions by people to the extreme, but I think it is important to understand the causes of such behavior. You do bring up a good point about school shootings Nathaniel, in that the media makes…"
