I am glad to see companies not include content restrictions or vague "hate speech" policies that go beyond removing illegal content. These types of content policies at Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Tik Tok, YouTube, Amazon, Apple, Google, etc. all end up simply silencing moderate and conservative voices, and it has even come down to banning books now (https://www.wsj.com/articles/amazon-wont-sell-books-framing-lgbtq-identities-as-mental-illnesses-11615511380 https://www.wsj.com/articles/amazon-wont-sell-books-framing-...). Anything that is less than full commitment to progressive viewpoints is labeled as "hate". And given speech mostly lives on digital platforms these days, these "hate speech" policies erode the right to free speech we are intended to have. For example - do you think children should not be allowed to consent to life-changing medical procedures without parental consent? Hate speech. Do you think borders should be secured to prevent illegal immigrants? Hate speech. What about requiring voter ID? Hate speech. On the other hand do you think "All Cops Are Bastards" (ACAB)? Allowed. Do you think we should "eat the rich"? Allowed. What about adopting Marxist philosophies, which caused more than 100 million deaths in the 20th Century? Allowed. These examples paint an absurd picture but it's the reality of how digital platforms have been policing speech and shaping our society's opinions artificially, under the guise of these misguided content policies. Just because a US company is doing it, instead of a foreign state, doesn't lessen its impact - these actions amount to propaganda. As for Basecamp - given their promising letter and stance, I will be taking a look at their products and figuring out how to start using them to show my support for their pragmatism and rational sanity in an otherwise hostile world.
