Freedom of speech is worth a very high cost.. Untold thousands have paid with their lives trying to ensure its continuity..
Bitcoin is at the heart of freedom of speech.. It is its purpose..
Well said!
Or as a famous quote goes: "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it" (I had to search for the source:
Evelyn Beatrice Hall).
Luckily, I also have the "Freedom to click the Ignore button", which nicely balances it out. And I really don't mind the occasional troll that much. By being consequent on the ignore button, I barely see their crap, it's only on a few boards, and it's a small amount compared to the useful posts on this forum. So let them be, ignore them, and stop feeding the creatures!
People don't have the right to not be offended
I dare go a step further, and I don't remember who said it before I did, but: "Being offended is a choice!".
Google brings me to the Chicago Tribune, but it's literally tells me it's unavailable in Europe.I don't think I've ever been offended by anything on this forum. If you're offended by someone on the internet, you give them far too much credit! To quote myself:
If someone on the internet is mean to you:
boo fucking hoo! Use the Ignore button, and forget about them.
