Good lol Should've been done long ago. Zefyris said: What's the problem here exactly? it's their website, they decide what they're okay with and what they're not. If tomorrow they decide that anyone who writes "carrots" will be banned, and that anyone complaining about that new rule will have his account deleted, they can do it, it's privately owned so there is no such thing as "free speech" to be enforced there. If someone is unhappy about a restriction, all he has to do is move on another website that fits his/her needs/opinions more, and that's it. Nothing to see here, move on. Amen <3 Wish more people realized this. I hate it when people cry "Freedom of speech blablabla". |

Freedom of speech doesn't mean you can go onto other people property and start spouting stuff that's against there polocies. Look up freedom of association |

isekai said: @Phendrus you forgot to mention about social contract that i said earlier Social contract that typically addresses the questions of the origin of society and the legitimacy of the authority of the state over the individual.[1] Social contract arguments typically posit that individuals have consented, either explicitly or tacitly, to surrender some of their freedoms and submit to the authority of the ruler or magistrate (or to the decision of a majority), in exchange for protection of their remaining rights. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_contract that alone implies we need a government to enforce that social contract in order to attain some sort of peace and order or society unlike in the jungle where anything goes (lawless jungle) We're not even talking about the same thing anymore. I'm not denying that some legal restrictions are necessary to protect people from troublemakers (i.e. we need a legal method of dealing with murderers lest they kill decent folk unchecked.) That's not what I'm arguing against. DateYutaka called Reddit's actions an attack on freedom of speech (something I'd argue against due to it being a private site, but that's immaterial at the moment.) You responded that too much freedom would lead to a "state of nature," the implication being that allowing people to freely express their beliefs in, for example, Nazism, would lead to the collapse of human civilization. THIS is what I'm arguing against: Your implicit assertion that society will be destroyed unless we have our government tell people "You're not allowed to proclaim this ideology because we don't like your beliefs and CLEARLY we're the ones in the right here." Edit: Bernrika said: Phendrus said: Not at all. Someone who is truly in favor of free speech would still advocate that people be allowed to speak against free speech. I can see the argument. However, do people really care that NAZI sub-reddit got removed from a privately owned site? I don't really care since, as you said, it's privately owned (actually, I kind of - and I emphasize KIND OF - approve of their decision.) I'm just here because isekai made some remarks that implied we need to legally suppress certain ideologies, and I certainly take issue with THAT idea. Plus, threads like this can be fun to watch, depending on the direction they take. |

Doxxing may not be a "crime" in a legal sense, but it's certainly is for the amount of damage it causes, hence why most sites forbids it. I had a creep on MAL try and doxx me and stalk all of my social accounts until he managed to find out my real name and city, and my defunct FB. Reported him to MAL, but they only took down his disgusting porn account that he used to sexually harass female users, even though they knew his main. I had to deactivate my already unused FB account thanks to that. The good thing is that the humiliation associated with being outed basically drove him off the site, but it’s still an extremely scummy thing to do regardless and should’ve warranted a permaban to both his accounts. Doxxing may not be always considered illegal but it should not be commonplace either, and anyone who does it should be rightfully banned for breaking a site’s rules. |

Bernrika said: I wonder, how do you define doxxing? Are you actually defending doxxing. Josh said: If only MAL would stop growing, if only liberals like you would update their ideologies with what is happening right now in reality instead of relying on old, out of touch, ideas.Nico- said: I don't know about that. MAL allows far more explicit Nazism, white nationalism, Maoism, and (insert other extreme political ideology) than any other forum I've posted on. If this is a Plebbit forum, then what does a non-Plebbit forum look like? Stormfront?I'd say MAL's case is beyond repair regarding the Plebbit virus. I think the far-out content that MAL allows in CE and CD drives away the majority of "normal" people, who don't have radical political opinions and can't be bothered to wade through the shit. The flight of the normal people contributes to a politically charged and "toxic" environment. Zefyris said: Censorship. What's the problem here exactly? it's their website, they decide what they're okay with and what they're not. Indeed, they can decide whatever they want, because they like other popular sites similar to them have a monopoly. I wonder where I'm going with that, maybe you're smart enough to guess. If tomorrow they decide that anyone who writes "carrots" will be banned, and that anyone complaining about that new rule will have his account deleted, they can do it, it's privately owned so there is no such thing as "free speech" to be enforced there. Not as law, but as an idea, yes. I remember arguing with you before but I never thought you'd be this slow. Same goes for you @hazarddex, but disregard the compliments, you were never a good partner. NudeBear said: Pretty much all censorship is the same. It didn't take long for a website's moderation policy to be compared to one of the most gruesome examples of government censorship from the Nazi regime. Talk about exaggeration. Analogies work that way though, but as usual, you never learn your lesson or definitions for that matter. Zefyris said: Godwin's Law was never meant to be used seriously, there's no need to show even more ignorance than this.Godwin's law to its finest. We can objectively close this thread now that it's been reached. @Ardanaz I'm not even amazed at this point. Wish more people realized this. I hate it when people cry "Freedom of speech blablabla". It's like arbitrary restrictions will kick you in the nuts too. @ashfrliebert Just because your sense of humor is not evolved enough, that does not mean it can't be for others. |

Because someone else said it was a crime and compared it to other crimes you fucking dipshit isekai said: the amount of freedom on the internet alone do some real crimes like doxxing, identity theft, fake news, trolling, etc so believe me you do not want more freedom Therefore, not a crime at all. but it's certainly is for the amount of damage it causes That's not how deciding what is and is not a crime works. hence why most sites forbids it. Most websites want to avoid hostile behavior altogether. Other than wanting to avoid potential shitstorms, there's a website has to worry about. Finding publically available information on someone and posting it on a public platform isn't a crime, and no legal action can be taken against the website or the poster of said information. |

It's a private business so if any of you don't like it stop supporting capitalism. Yeah. This is where you slip in "ideas I find to be threats to my worldview". Okay, but you don't support capitalism. That last part I meant for other similar things.. I got tired of listing. Immahnoob said: At some point you don't even know where to start with people like @isekai and @traed. You could start by checking yourself into a psych ward. If you paid attention youd notice I was implying I'm against banning things just for being offensive as a whole. I was specifying what would be more acceptable terms. Censorship is when the government does things. When a business does it it's just a free market action. They can legally do what they want for that. Doxxing itself isn't illegal as long as it doesnt use hacking or phishing. It's just what is done after that can be. Like harassment or defamation of character for example. Doxxing is done by gathering publicly available information. Just about anyone can do it. |

Phendrus said: isekai said: Phendrus said: isekai said: Phendrus said: isekai said: @Phendrus you forgot to mention about social contract that i said earlier Social contract that typically addresses the questions of the origin of society and the legitimacy of the authority of the state over the individual.[1] Social contract arguments typically posit that individuals have consented, either explicitly or tacitly, to surrender some of their freedoms and submit to the authority of the ruler or magistrate (or to the decision of a majority), in exchange for protection of their remaining rights. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_contract that alone implies we need a government to enforce that social contract in order to attain some sort of peace and order or society unlike in the jungle where anything goes (lawless jungle) We're not even talking about the same thing anymore. I'm not denying that some legal restrictions are necessary to protect people from troublemakers (i.e. we need a legal method of dealing with murderers lest they kill decent folk unchecked.) That's not what I'm arguing against. DateYutaka called Reddit's actions an attack on freedom of speech (something I'd argue against due to it being a private site, but that's immaterial at the moment.) You responded that too much freedom would lead to a "state of nature," the implication being that allowing people to freely express their beliefs in, for example, Nazism, would lead to the collapse of human civilization. THIS is what I'm arguing against: Your implicit assertion that society will be destroyed unless we have our government tell people "You're not allowed to proclaim this ideology because we don't like your beliefs and CLEARLY we're the ones in the right here." im just pointing out that too much freedom like total freedom leads to state of nature or lawlessness, its an extreme example i know but the second part of my post is saying even on the internet there is too much freedom that leads to cybercrimes so what more if the internet will become the state of nature too? So, am I to understand that the post where you quoted DateYutaka had basically nothing to do with what he said about "this is anti-free speech?" The fact that you quoted his post before saying your bit about "too much freedom is bad" made it sound like you were trying to justify censorship and the oppression of the free exchange of ideas. Was I simply misunderstanding you? I'm totally with you on the "anarchy is bad" position, just not on the "certain ideologies need to be suppressed by the government" part you seemed to be implying. im not purely anti-free speech but i am anti-free speech just to lessen cybercrimes I give up. The bizarrely disconnected nature of this discussion is making my head spin trying to keep a handle on it. You win. welp ok but last thing to hopefully clear it if im gonna choose between unlimited or limited free speech then i will choose limited free speech just to have some laws that will protect some peace and order we are in a agreement there actually |

Psyotic said: isekai said: the amount of freedom on the internet alone do some real crimes like doxxing, identity theft, fake news, trolling, etc so believe me you do not want more freedom Doxxing, trolling, and fake news are not crimes. for now they are not really crimes but they are meant to damage just like any crimes and heck most forums on the internet ban trolling for example |

They advocate the murder of the bourgeoisie and violent revolution. Just because they aren't openly talking about killing people, does not mean that the ideology isn't predicated on violence. It would be like having an ISIS subreddit but they do not talk about killing the infidels. |

ashfrliebert said: worldeditor11 said: I thought this whole Nazi thing is a joke. Just like those guys in MAL who have Hitler as one of their favourite characters. It's just not funny. I'm a racist who likes genocidal maniacs? Haha just kidding aren't I funny? Geez why are you guys getting to so offended just a joke. And most other people who [aren't] trying to be funny are just doing it to intentionally rile up sensitive people who have little sense of humor. Which might not make them nazi's, but it does make them trolls. It'd be better at least if they were funny and entertaining rather than blunt and boring. But its funny... At least 141 000 people on the internet believe the video is funny. For real though, I have never come across any, anybody who isn't ironic being a Nazi sympathiser or claiming being a Nazi themselves. |
