Free speech isnt absolute. No decent person will allow antisemite feces to spread their bile. Everybody who thinks free speech is absolute will regret it because this human scum will infest every forum and make it uninhabitable that doesnt take precautions.

I'd rather have the ability to block that user myself, rather than have the platform decide for me. Too much is lumped into "antisemitism" including legitimate criticism of Israel.

The only legitimate criticism I can think of Israel is letting trannies in the military without legalizing Gay marriages. Not one of these so-called “critics“ focuses on that inconsistency in Israeli law. Instead, they would rather just throw the baby out with the bathwater.

Nonsense. I have no problem being on a forum in which whites are criticized and have mean words said about them. I spent years on reddit. Who the fuck cares. If someone is explicitly making direct threats of violence that's another matter, but beyond that no one should be above criticism, least of all a group that wields so much hidden power and actively uses that power to advance their interests and attack perceived enemies.
