RE: Steemits coming of age - contest at the bottom, guess when steemit will "come of age"
Someone will post their manifesto on the blockchain before going postal within 6 months, calling it.
If a Muslim jihadist came here no one would care about his free speech. If NAMBLA came here to promote pedophile rights no one would care about their freedom of speech. What about posting bomb making instructions? How to derail a train? All sorts of free speech no one would support. People support racist speech because they themselves have racist beliefs, not because not because they are free speech advocates.
Would all these people who complain about free speech care if any of those groups above got silenced? No way. I see Muslim jihadist sites the exact same as I see right wing hate discussion.
Post a link to a malicious spoofed virus site and see how much everyone here respects your free speech. Seems like it is just white racist hate speech gets a free pass, because there is lots of shit that would get downvoted.
Many people on this site have access to hate speech sites blocked by their ISP, not everyone here is American, lots of places have laws against hate speech. Why should a bigot who has bought no steem have more rights than someone who invested but lives in some European nation where hate speech is banned?
