> I'm much for free speech, but more in the sense that we should be able to discuss policy/politics/critique/bitch/bash/religions/etc. Not so we can make terror plans, defame, harass, bully
The recent past should tell you that a lot of what some would call legitimate critique/bitch/bash etc. others would call harass/bully/violence –to also include not speaking about it at all.
So in the interest of consistency, and publicity, I'd prefer to let the bigots of the world speak, and out themselves as bigots, so that we may then publicly speak and make fun of them for being bigots. The same goes for corporations.
Bullying is, to me, a thing minors do.
Children, adults, people-in-positions-of-power and corps should be held to different standards.
I've seen banks offer "quick loans" specifically to vulnerable adults. Same with the opiod crisis: some big pharmas dont mind pushing the message that "patients should talk to their doctors about XYZ". Corps can do much more harm than individuals.
