They can just ignore it and it's only binding in that circuit. Look away, look away, look away.

Is p99 the government? No.

If you say hateful and repugnant shit in my house, I'll give your ass the boot. Why should you be treated any differently in this house?

The only real question whether or not something is acceptable to say is: Does it offend any group besides white males? If so, then you cannot say it. Welcome to 2022.

Free Speech is the bedrock of freedom. It's a worthy ideal to strive for in all of humanity, not just for "government". In order for one to be able to think, one must risk being offensive/offended.

I love free speech, but humans have within them the capability to be too annoying, stupid, and/or weird to allow any public space without moderation

As Louis CK joked, all it takes is a single word, and you can ground an airplane in flight. And that word is not bomb, or anything violent. You can simply say the word "DOWN", over and over...and if you do not stop saying it, they will land the fucking plane. That's the kind of power words can have, when you get really really annoying with them

If free speech > all, then people should be allowed to spam chat rooms and message boards with ads. Or any kind of spam

So if we agree that certain things need to be blocked, then free speech really can't exist without moderation. The rest is just deciding what to block

So how does p1999 interpret this rule, would i get banned for example for stating my belief that the alleged genocide referred to as the "holocaust" is a lie?

Would i get banned for saying the fact that black people have lower iq than whites on averege?

Wtf is wrong with you someone please report this idiot

I think if your post count remains 0 you can say whatever the fuck you want.
