I feel like I've been pretty consistent in expressing my beliefs, but I can explain it again since it seems I have lost you.
In my opinion, people should only be censored/banned/de-platformed for:
- Inciting Imminent Violence: "Lets go burn down that n-words house tonight" or "I'm going to kill you tomorrow"
- Doxxing: "JohnnyB is a NAZI and his real name is Johnny Banana and he lives at 123 Fake Street. Do your thing."
- Posting Illegal Materials: bomb-making instructions, child porn, bestiality, etc..
All other forms of speech should be allowed, and if disagreed with, vigorously and publicly debated. I understand that in today's world this concept of expansive free expression is fairly controversial, however it wasn't but a few years ago when it was still considered the norm (as referenced in 2012 by Obama).
