>>I wish there was a better way

Freedom of speech can be uncomfortable for those not into the same thing someone else is. I find this site often uncomfortable for disagreements in philosophy, but will always encourage freedom of expression for those I disagree with, as I expect them to encourage me, whether they agree with me or not.

(I like the pattern on Melania’s coat.)

We all wish there was a better way, but there isn’t.

Even here, on FR, we don’t have absolute freedom of speech. Lots of things are disallowed, and It’s entirely possible if not probable that had Q chosen FR or similar sites, they would have been banned.

Free speech is a tricky thing, but it’s also as simple as can be when you get right down to it. Free speech means people are free to say and post whatever they want. Some people decide that they want to post porn or racist things but who is to decide? We can all see what happens when a company like Facebook decides to be the arbitrator and the results aren’t good.

In the end, if we want free speech, we have to understand that means some people will be posting things we don’t like. Thankfully my mouse has a scroll feature and I can move past things I’m not interested in. The chans also have the ability to filter out posters who post things that are objectionable to you.
