You can't, everything on the fediverse is very public. Even if such checkbox existed, all admins still have a copy of everything in their database.

If you don't want other people to see your posts and comments you shouldn't post and comment on a public website. Duh.

...and if some post had an intent to bring up some critical thinking but firesback, leading the whole group of community spamming arrogant comments on your other post?

That's why I have separate accounts for general commenting and for poking the hornets nest

You can't. Just have separate accounts.
