If you can be punished by these overbearing social media platforms - or even by the judicial system - merely for referring to a man as a man, then how is that not an erosion of free speech? It gives others far too much power over what you're allowed to say.
- afarviral 3y agoI'm not saying that free speech need be chucked away, but that we should strive to maintain a balance which protects societies from bad actors. Merely misgendering someone isn't necessarily abusive, but a pattern of consistent harassment is. If a privately owned company want to allow the former and not the latter, then I'm okay with it.
