Just like the ACLU. Free speech is very important. If someone has something objectionable to say, let them expose themselves. Censorship solves nothing.

- Frondo 8y agoJust look at how state-backed censorship laws have turned Germany and Canada into totalitarian hellholes. Yeah, right. HN stans for white supremacy because it's mostly white and extremely online and never gets out to see the results of "give everyone a soapbox" on the streets where the proud boys are out there beating the shit out of people. You people are cowards, and nothing more. There's no bravery here, no principled stand, just a bunch of fucking cowards.

- malvosenior 8y agoI think you're doing a great job demonstrating why allowing people to expose their horrible ideas does more to dissuade other people than censorship. I'm glad your replies are on display even if I strongly disagree with them.
