Very important subject, censorship @coruscate — I’m grateful to see this discussed.
As a writer and thinker, of course, I’m opposed to it. But, tolerance of hate is not tolerance & our right to free speech ends where hate speech begins.
Blocking comments is not, necessarily, a bad thing & offering a platform to known bigots is not a good thing, either.
I’m curious about @threespeak, as an artist and journalist, but frankly also put off by some of the sketchy characters being rewarded on it (such as @tommyrobinson, @ brianofLondon @rairfoundation) which make me wary to join.
@theycallmedan it’s good to, finally, see you (you look nothing like I thought you would, based on your cartoon :) Thanks, again, for all the good you do!
Tell me, did you ever get my book that I sent you?
Cheers, Yahia
