Sorry for my long message , but I can have a lot to comment in relation to the subject . Don ' t be sorry ! This is exactly the type of thing I ' m hoping to promote by opposing policing people for opinions not implying that you were unfortunately I misread the situation . I think we ' re on the same page actually but tell me if you disagree with the following assertions in a direct message , time to move off the sub if we want to keep chatting . i don ' t think people should be banned sitewide or prosecuted for words , regardless of how offensive they are . If they aren ' t criminal they should be allowed to be a member of the community , I believe that if someone goes to an individual community , one moderated by trusted users they should have a reasonable expectation of facing consequences for their speech , but banning them from an unrelated community for those comments is problematic . I believe anonymity online is an indispensable tool in an age of global surveillance . I believe that words online aren ' t violence . I believe this conversation is innapproriate for this sub . I believe the Eagles suck , the Giants are overrated , and the Redskins should get their money back .
