If you support bad posts being removed from the internet, do you also support bad text being removed from people's hard drives? What about bad thoughts being removed from people's minds?
- Jardin 9y agoIt's an enormous leap in logic to go from things removed from public forums to private hard drives, let alone one's mind. The fact that creating boundaries is a difficult and messy business does not mean they're not worth creating, even with the flaws.
- withdavidli 9y agoYou sound like things are in absolutes, black and white, it’s not. Would you remove child porn off the internet? How about a rape victim’s photos and videos? If you could delete something that would cause people to commit suicide, would you?
- octothorpes 9y agoWhy remove when you can show only to specific audiences, ie. police etc. that can do something more than delete the content.
- nkrisc 9y agoYou can delete it and share the information with the proper authorities. In fact that is probably what's done.
- nkrisc 9y agoYour bizarre, logical, absolutist view of the world is not one the majority of people share. There is a difference between removing the sort of terrible posts that show up on Facebook and thoughts in people's heads. Most people can see the difference. If you can't, I suggest you take some time to consider why other people might see a difference.
