Quit being so absolutist. You dont have all the answers and neither do I. I've proposed multiple solutions that grant individual deference to you and your individual concerns and decision making. Everything from you is "shitstain", "murderer", etc. Good luck changing minds.

I don't care about my "individual decision making" I mean big fucking whoop, I *always* had the power to make my own decisions Unless Trump were to actually go so far as to ban masks and make a law demanding people eat at restaurants, I always will have that power

And that power was fucking useless at actually stopping the plague or protecting anybody when all this started and it hasn't become any more useful in the nine months since

Fucking useless libertarian platitudes People getting killed in traffic accidents -- "Well, everyone has the power to drive more slowly and carefully" People getting food poisoning from restaurants -- "Well, everyone has the power to only buy from vendors they know and trust"

And yeah, actually, as far as the Machiavellian political strategy of it all goes, it's very clear that once people like you are allowed at the negotiating table, all will to do what needs to be done is eroded very quickly

I'm not censoring you, obviously, but I am opposing you as fiercely as I can with as blunt and uncompromising language as I can, which is not only my right under the First Amendment but what I consider my duty as a citizen

Amen. But suggesting any debate consist of one side being allowed a voice is exactly as I noted. Censorship. Period.

No, it isn't, it's a basic requirement of civil society If you think the Overton Window shouldn't exist or should expand indefinitely then you're asking for something impossible and you're guaranteeing society will never actually progress

Censorship = progress. Maybe in North Korea. Come on, man.

Censorship =/= people generally deciding a given point of view is no longer worth listening to, and reacting to it with extreme hostility

I will always react to people treating me as less important than they are and my death as an acceptable loss for society with extreme anger and hostility, and try to make it as uncomfortable for someone to express those views in my presence as possible

I guess I'll always be censoring you, then Maybe the only way to have real free speech is to have the government make it illegal for me to be so mean
