> The new "Public Spaces Incubator" (PSI) initiative will develop and test innovative solutions that encourage accessible and meaningful online conversations on issues of public interest, free from harassment or bullying — inclusive exchanges that will reflect diverse viewpoints and promote greater empathy and understanding, without suppressing perspectives or ideas.
When ideas like racism and sexism are experienced as harassment, how is it possible to be both free of harassment and of the suppression of ideas?
I don't think it's possible. You have to tell people that they aren't really being harassed, or that their ideas aren't really being suppressed. And the interpretation of which is which cannot be objective.
