I'm very disappointed. I had a lot of hope that they wouldn't go down that path.

I didn’t see what was posted, but in general, don’t you agree that there is a line that if crossed gets you banned reasonably?

No - the Dazzler is proof of that.

Just beat the fuck out of their absurdity and mock them relentlessly.

Dazzler is a harmless ineffectual idiot. Not the example I’m thinking of. He is regularly used as a piñata. All good fun.

Suppose ISIS posted a call for death to all Americans and accompanied it with video of a mass beheading. Should they be banned?

Or an army of bots creating and posting to fake accounts in order to clog a site with overwhelming troll activity. Should those accounts be banned?

What about cases in general that violate the terms of service?

We always have the option of not watching something.

It is also not uncommon for graphic warning tags to be applied to unseemly content.

I prefer to be the arbiter of what goes into my own mind, not someone else. Same as with what goes into my body.

This is a tough call when you have fake accounts poasting as part of a group that they want to harm.

Say you want to damage the image of a group and you know the corrupt media would be more than willing to use your troll poasts to smear them.

You could put all the warnings you want on the content, the corrupt media would omit that from their reporting.

If you know its a fake account, fine. But he said nobody would be banned for political views. And then someone said death to America and he said not on this platform.
