We move forward by being challenged. We do not move forward by being insulted, slurred or trolled. Mutual respect is the necessary foundation for any constructive interaction.
- dqv 10y agoAre you implying that "safe spaces" promote constructive interaction and mutual respect? Being gay, a safe space is the only place I've ever gone and been called a homophobe and then kicked out. They don't promote constructive interaction and mutual respect. They promote further exclusion: a place where minorities with minority opinions are kicked out.
- zhemao 10y agoImzy is not, nor attempting to be, a safe space by that definition. From the article: "You can get your feelings hurt. You can't get death threats." So far, most of the people that have received bans were like the people who ran the safe space you were kicked out of.
