I read the description, and thought, this sounds like a bad idea. Where is the content moderation? I scrolled down, and the first post I see is the n-word

Words cannot hurt you.

  yes they can what the hell are you talking about? i would wager "being hurt by words" is something close to a universal human experience

    What the hell are YOU talking about? Of course words can't actually hurt you. Being bothered <> hurt. You can hurt yourself perhaps in response to words but words can't do it, you have to apply the meaning and the hurt internally, as opposed to say rockets, which can hurt you without any involvement on your part at all.

      You're working on a very simplistic definition of harm, if not bleeding means not hurt. Almost toddler-like level.

      Wasn't holocaust caused by words?

  I'm not hurt by words like that. I was thinking in general terms of moderation, slurs is one, but simple automated spam would be another thing, I imagine it isn't protected against. I just thought it was funny to see my initial concern verified so quickly.

  Chaplinsky v. New Hampshire Virginia v. Black Gertz v. Robert Welch, Inc. While it may not apply to you personally, the U.S. Supreme Court largely disagrees with that sentiment.

  They do hurt people. Whoever says they don't just hasn't had the appropriate words thrown their way.

  Why, oh, why of all the multitude, the fertile myriad of concepts, mottos, ideas, do we all ways, across technologies end up seeing this represented again? Over and over ... It will be put on a Voyager disk, next, and sent out to the stars to represent us.-
