Freedom of speech actually has limit and that limit usually ends when it starts causing harm to other people.
I'm sure names and people's avatars are really causing harm...??
easily seen bans by Paradox and Ubisoft staff members
Those 2 companies don't ban people for cheating for 10 years without ample proof not off goodwill, see the difference?
Ever since the anti-extradition protests in Hong Kong, there's a wave of misinformation campaign headed by a bunch of abrasive juveniles.
In the Old Guards eyes anyone who disagrees is "abrasive juveniles" just saying??
Actually believe it or not they are still censoring this fourm, my first post in this thread got delete for a vague reason "Politics" , even though this whole thread is politics in a way.
Think that's bad on the Steam forum, tons of random deleted posts and comments (Medival Movie thread really? Like I get any trolling threads, but a thread that brings the community together?) Got a Disrespectful warning for telling someone he didn't sound like he knew what he was talking about and to stay Salty my friend.
Checked with steam support and it was Developers. Oh and asking if someone wanted Avacodo toast and a soy latte, and also asking why he was threatening(or stating he was sounding threatening)
You can't talk someone to death, but if you live in Hong Kong and you sell the wrong books, one day you will disappear, you will end up in a kangaroo court, and nobody will see you again. So it's super easy to sympathize with anyone who is frustrated out loud, or at the very least it should not be very difficult to understand. Again, these are people with no power at all. They are maximally vulnerable. The only thing they have is a voice.
Exactly well stated, people go missing all the time from countries like that and they have no power except a voice and even then just talking "dissent"(Anything they dont like) is a crime.
"They can control speech on their private property", and yeah, sure they can.
To a certain degree, forums and Social media have a clause atm that makes it so that they aren't considered a "publisher" so they can't get in trouble or have complete control over posts and free speech. Essentially it's a town square of sorts.
And could be regulated by Govermemt to allow full in free speech.
If we don't allow one another to ever speak bad ideas, we never discuss those ideas, and without discussion, the bearer never learns why the ideas were wrong- only that they are shunned
Exactly. Which just leads to resentment of the shunners.
It really is better to just learn to cope with the spoken and written word. If I can type that sentence without rolling my eyes
? I rolled mine for you.
Cope is a good way to put it.
