I'm not confusing them. But I'm also not a fan of using the power if the state to punish people I disagree with, even if they say vile things. Such power will inevitably be abused, turned against me, etc.

It's safer in the long run to preserve free speech and expression, even if it means people get away with being asshats.

There is a correlation, though. I for one was deeply homophobic before I came out of the closet, and it was based on my fear of being labeled gay.

I don't think that would do a lot in terms of protecting unpopular speech.

Well that brightens my day :)

The problem is in who decides what speech should be punished.

The value of the DNS is that we all use the same one. You can declare independence, but you'd lose out on that value.

Fuck social media, why doesn’t everyone have a geocities page with a webring that links to their angelfire page and guestbooks and ICQ and stumbleupon KIDS NEED TO STOP HAVING A DIFFERENT INTERNET EXPERIENCE THAN I GREW UP WITH!”

This, but unironicly!
