I don't know what you're referring to, and I doubt I'm alone either. Anti-hate speech laws can be very easily abused due to its loose definition that's entirely up for interpretation and can be affected by personal bias. That's why excessive censorship can result in totalitarianism.

Exactly. That's why I'll enact a list of slurs that will result in a one week or half week ban

imgflip already has a Terms of Use that specifies what one can and cannot post, so I don't see why this stream needs even more rules.

The definition of what qualifies as "hate speech" can vary from person to person. Hate speech is just offensive free speech because it is non-violent. Being offensive is not an offence.

You just said it. Being offensive is an offence, no bones about it. I'm not saying free speech is unacceptable, I'm saying offensive free speech is unaccepteble

I said that being offensive is not an offence. Just because you're offended doesn't mean you're right. And I don't want to leave the freedom for me to express myself up to how offended someone feels. If I consider you saying the word "unacceptable" offensive, does that make it hate speech? All speech is acceptable, whether you agree with it or not. It's not very adult to want to censor everything that triggers you. That's how echo chambers form and freedom of expression dies.

So its freedom of expression to call people slurs and glorify Nazism!? I'm saying stuff in general that's offensive. No, I'm not making room for the special snowflakes that get triggered at the slightest thing, I'm talking about slurs and such. I know just because someone is offended doesn't mean they're right, that's common sense. I still don't agree with the total free speech thing, because a lot of people I've encountered on the internet that use the free speech card are trolls. Its not free speech to insult someone, or day racial slurs. No, we shouldn't censor people completely. That's why I've enacted a court process for people to go over their actions before their one week ban from the stream. By slurs, I'll make a list that are, generally used as slurs, and those are the ones that i will talk about

Again, the imgflip Terms of Use already provides limits to speech. All you're doing here is making it even more draconian. This is ironic because the Nazis supported censorship like you do, the very same people you claim should not be glorified.

The Nazis censored everything that was of a different opinion. I'm open to other opinions and decision, unlike the Nazis. As you saw on your last comment, i replied to that. I'm renouncing that rule. I'm also surprised you linked my anti Nazism with the Nazis. What are you trying to prove here? That I'm a bad guy and my ideas are "So draconian". For too long have we let people like whitenat slide, we need to take further action.

WN has been less active ever since his attempted war failed and Wubbzymon actually enforced his anti-WN laws, unlike LaChancla and beez who were inactive and didn't do anything about him. Wubbzy has taken the appropriate action, and electing another leftist will likely give us the same result we always get: an inactive president who fails to take action against WN. We have already taken the appropriate action. You just want to enact more unnecessary measures that will only restrict free speech, which ironically makes your policies more similar to the nazis. You have become so committed to preventing hate speech that you have "become the very thing you swore to destroy". Reelecting Wubbzy is our best course of action if we want to avoid the WN threat increasing.

Isn't re-electing wubbzy straight after illegal? I see your point, and I really have to better my arguments. I don't wanna censor, I just wanna make punishments harsher, and not such slap on the wrist like. I'm not into preventing hate speech anymore. Its taking measures to prosecute these kinda things, so people don't see it as easy

This goes to Jeffy12334akRIP, I'm not voting Knox because he seems like an idea I'm not familiar with, meanwhile Wubbzy is someone I know more, and because of that, trust more.
