FYI it's "bald faced"
Bah, thanks for spotting that.
Apologies for the uninformed question, and how would I access this with only kbin or mastodon login?
https://kbin.social/m/<community>@<instance>, in this case https://kbin.social/m/[email protected]
It's explained in this comment:

I'm not familiar with mastodon, but with Kbin you can just go Magazines > search and we should appear in the results
Ooh, an r/skeptic replacement sounds great!
quacks welcome to chat too? or no?
You can't have critical takes on quackery without quackery, so I think quacks should be welcomed as long as they refrain from the things we don't like list. Just as would be the case for the critical thinkers. I'm not saying this is the case, but it is how I would like it.
I know reddit's /r/skeptic was pretty hostile to people with the views they were interested in debunking. but I'm always on the lookout for people who are interested in debunking/refuting my weird/strange beliefs haha.
obviously I'd mean more towards being able to discuss between the two groups, not just let it get overrun with those kinda views.
btw quacks also consider themselves critical thinkers ;P
If you're looking for a debunking on a specific idea, claim, or theory then there's [email protected].
!Skeptic is more for general discussion.
As moderator of both, I'm going to be encouraging open mindedness as much as possible, because as @WowSuchInternetz said, critical thinking goes both ways.
As long as people are civil to each other, it's all gravy.
I'd hope for just general debate/discussion kinda thing. not necessarily debunking one off view. also debunkthis kinda sounds like it's not really room for debate idk. I guess we'll see :)
There's always room for debate as long as there's evidence to back it up one way or the other 👍
Head's up for anyone on kbin.social: drop the "!" from the beginning of the instance url otherwise it likely won't show up in your search.
So [email protected] instead of [email protected]
Uh... skeptic? with a k?
Skeptic is the correct spelling in North America.
maybe the correct spelling is in use already.

FAQ:
Q: Why do I get a 404?
A: At least one user in an instance needs to search for a community before it gets fetched. Searching for the community will bring it into the instance and it will fetch a few of the most recent posts without comments. If a user is subscribed to a community, then all of the future posts and interactions are now in-sync.
Q: When I try to create a post, the circle just spins forever. Why is that?
A: This is a current known issue with large communities. Sometimes it does get posted, but just continues spinning, but sometimes it doesn't get posted and continues spinning. If it doesn't actually get posted, the best thing to do is try later. However, only some people seem to be having this problem at the moment.
