Yes, let's start censoring people based on morality. That has never ever gone wrong.
Not moderating has gone wrong like a bazillion times.
Yes let all the Nazis racists eugenicists etcetera run wild because we don't want to censor based on morality 🥺🥺
Ah yes, Nazis hating
...checks post...
chickens?
Well, this escalated rather quickly....
Just Godwin's law at work here.
Oh, I'm all for having a chuckle at the expensive of people who make inappropriate Nazi comparisons.
A) I don't have to equivocate. Killing humans isn't the same as killing a chicken. We agree. The point is obvious. Moderation exists for a reason. Discrimination and normalizing violence are things worth moderating. You're either being intellectually dishonest in response or need to give it a little more thought.
B) Species difference aside, their experience at scale is by definition a holocaust. 136 million will die today alone. They can't grasp the scale as individuals, but they experience it personally. Believe it or not, some people value non-human life. Whether or not you do is not relevant given lack of moral justification.
You can't expect people in here to have some kind of brain. It's like trying to understand how they want a free (as in freedom) Internet without big tech at the same time they want censorship of their opponents and are lefties.
