I'm not proposing any worse censorship than is already here. If you buy/sell weapons or drugs on SaidIt you will be censored. If you debase the discussion with name calling you will be censored.

I don't care about the bad words and have no intention of censoring them. I care about the future of free speech platforms, and in particular, I care about the elevated discourse on SaidIt. If there is a threat to the future of free speech platforms then I am concerned. Maybe this can simply be resolved in part by using more accurate descriptions about "The Jews", the most powerful and threatening collective on the planet. That's why I brought it up.

I'm not suggesting anyone stop talking about that collective, on political, religious, financial, media or whatever grounds. Just use better words with accuracy, without room for confusion, misinterpretation, or potential for censorship from outside forces. NOT silence.

I've asked if I'm overreacting. d3rr said not. Is d3rr not pushing censorship in bad form too?

I'm just discussing free speech and it's defensive strategies. And maybe folks can just say "the Zionists" instead of "the Jews". If they don't know the difference then they should learn because they know enough to be dangerous but not enough to be smart.

What tactics do you propose to resolve this dilemma, if it even is a dilemma worth worrying about? Maybe all we can do is brace and be vigilant and be prepared to act when acting is actually necessary.
