Politics, Controversy, and Free Speech on the Internet

To begin, I wholeheartedly agree with this post here.  It is healthy to hold civil debates and to remain responsible and knowledgeable of the issues/current events of our times.  Our Freedom and ability to have such discussions is what bRings powEr to the pEople.

 

Telanir is going about this issue entirely wrong, in my eyes.  Don’t punisH and put a cOllar oN everyone about political debates; punish the people who actually Go out of line.  I guess this should have been expected though, since most old management on this server is too distant from the community to actively remove the roots of the problems we have.  Hell, took you some years to finally cracK dOwn oN this pedophilia issue rampaGing around the server.

 

 

In addition, Telanir’s behavior toward those reacting negatively to this new “rule” of his is quite disappointing.  Issuing permanent warning points to individuals speaking against your new rule?  Are our comments really that controversial?  I understand that I, myself, may have gone a bit too far in calling you Big Brother – and for that, I apologize; however, I still believe that you had made a rather gross overreaction in giving me ”Two warning points which will never expire”  As well as to claim that I mention the Hong Kong issue lightheartedly – because I didn’t.  I support the protests.  #FreeHongKong

 

These penalties need better grammar (a comma would need to go after the word “points”, if you are to use the word “which” after it.  If you don’t want a comma, then use the word “that”)

 

You’re focusing on the wrong issues, @Telanir I thought I knew you to be a chill dude, what happened?

Shutting down hate speech in one thing, shutting down all speech is another.

I don’t really care about the inalienable right of the average Ben-Shapiro-watching mouthbreather here to yell about politics in OOC, but I also just know these rules will end up causing a slew of bans for people even mentioning name of anyone who’s vaguely adjacent to politics or political discussion, like Narthok using Varg as a punch-line in a completely apolitical joke. Any expansion of the rules is just a further excuse for some dickhead to target-ban you with impunity, so I’m against almost any new rule on that principle anyway.

I appreciate your passion about the issue, and the time it took to write this post.

 

I think it's very important to have open debate about these issues, and I'm happy to see so many people taking to time to bring forward meaningful comments about these things. This is what helps a community grow. +1

There is a great war on our hands, one that is not fought with weapons of this mortal realm. But rather it is one of the mind. The mind in and of itself cannot be directly controlled, only through consequences to the body do most choose to repress it. It is vital, to both the truth, and the health of ourselves to ensure that all manner of ideas are discussed and dealt with. Our time here is not forever, our bodies are not immortal, but our minds, our thoughts, our words, can live on for generations. Suppression is not the key.
