Yes, you're one tough maverick for repeating something stated only about 20x in just this thread.

But you're indeed quite brave to pretend not to have seen the 25 answers pointing out that it's also this CEO (and everyone else's) right not to participate in the spreading of hate speech and nazi propaganda.

Also:

"slippery slope" is not an argument, it's a fallacy. Observe: "now, they're only imprisoning the murderers. It's only a matter of time until they'll throw you in jail for walking funny"

> you are now -- in my opinion -- obligated to do so ...

Why? Does eating one apple pie obligate you to eat all the apple pie?

> ... unilaterally

As opposed to bilateral moderation?

When I first clicked on the discussion link, there were two comments. I also took a break to go to the restroom before I submitted my comment. I'm sorry that I wasn't quick enough for you.

> unilaterally

Happy now?

Did you actually want to discuss/argue with my comment or just criticize the way I worded it?
