I support Jason in this endeavor because it is what these people do to us (stifle, censor, ban, pilpul). It's fair to dispense a degree of their own medicine. That being said, this isn't personal to "socks" per se, but is how I feel on the dynamic of debate at hand (there is none). Fair's fair. While I am at it, meaning no personal offense and inquiring only for the action of curiosity, u/socks are you of the Hebrew ethnicity? Thanks for everyones kindness and sympathy in dealing with what we are.

So you support the person who is responsible for stifling, censoring, banning and reducing activities in the Chat? And you do this because - when he bans users without any provocation - he's givign them a taste of their own medicine? I noted that I've not banned him. I don't know of anyone else banning him. To my knowledge, no one is restricting his free speech. This is the reason for my post. It's odd that I have to explain this. I also don't know why you mention ethnicity. Is Saidit restricting certain ethnicities? I also don't know why you'd mention that anyone is dealing with "what we are". The point is simple: allow free speech in the Chat?

Those who act to disrupt the free speech of others must never be allowed to claim free speech for themselves. This is the Paradox of Tolerance.
