Re: [OFFTOPIC] Censorship is good, actually. If you don't like that fact, maybe you should commit some client-side censorship, otherwise known as the killfile.

The best argument comes down to "Because I am driving healthy discussion
off the net and I want to continue doing that." Sn!pe is one of these
people. He has never denied being Hamas.

There was something about good money being displaced by bad, and while it
does not apply to bullion money for various reasons, it does apply to
debates. Bad arguments displace good arguments when both are given equal,
rather than due, weight, because they are propounded more insistently
(have you ever seen Alex Jones?), and I've seen this time and time again.
This is why moderation is needed when there are arguments - to flag up
obvious bad arguments and bad ways of arguing, and ensure that bad
arguments cannot displace good.
