@hub They literally acknowledged that they had people with Nazi views on the platform and refused to deplatform them. I really don't know how much more correct that analogy could possibly be.
What pisses me off quite regularly about where we are is that we did not get here overnight. We are here now because of the stubborn refusal of a large number of people to say "that's not OK, we're not going to accept that, and I don't give a flying fuck how loud you cry about it."
If people had ostracized the Tea Party bastards years ago, we wouldn't be here.
If Trump had been sidelined years ago, we wouldn't be here.
If Gamergate and 4chan hadn't been tolerated... we wouldn't be here.
We used to be able to contain this shit. Remember David Duke? The Republican party used to at least refuse to endorse outright bald, naked racism.
Sorry. You caught me in a ranty mode.
