I do not advocate bans of something especially in science. Must be able to convince their opponents. If you can't convince someone, then not the fact that your theory is correct.

You think this until you come across mental illness and or severe addictions. Then you realize convincing etc doesn't work. They are people who are no longer rational.

You let those people do what they wish but also minimize their damage by keeping them away from your life.

This holds true for forums too. Luckily this forum is a bastion for free speech, but Reddit never claimed to be that.
