If people were almost always well-behaved, I would agree with your conclusion as to what is "acceptable" or not. But they are not. And in order to not have a site resemble a dumpster fire in terms of quality, I feel that the current rules are warranted.

Otherwise people are just going to leave, and there will be no discussing anything.

Reddit has a block feature. I don't know if this site does, but it ought to add one soon. The whole purpose of the block feature is to give the user control over their interactions with poorly behaved people.

That being said, your reply above isn't much of a counter argument. It's just feelings and speculation. Why should my freedom of speech and expression be limited because some pathetic spineless weasel can't handle abrasive rhetoric? That type of person is not someone I really want to discuss anything with anyway. Limiting my free speech already makes me want to leave this site. Catering to retards will turn this site into a shitty reddit clone and will make me want to leave even more.

I suppose this world just isn't the place for me, since unlike most of the people who inhabit it, I have principles and actually stick to them.
