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.

Protected bile lanes are all they need from municipalities. My city has leaned into some protected lanes for bikes in its downtown core, and scooters are heavily used there.
A safe path where they can travel 15-20mph along with normal bikes will heavily incentivise use. Everything else will coke along with that.
We've had municipalities around here REMOVE protected bike lanes... anything to make car drivers feel safe, right? /s
