"Men will never be free until the last king is strangled with the entrails of the last priest." approximately based on "Et ses mains ourdiraient les entrailles du prêtre, au défaut d’un cordon pour étrangler les rois." ~ Denis Diderot

And is this call for violence legal on Saidit because we're misquoting a philosophe?

And you're the guy /u/magnora7 thanked for helping him

The Pyramid of Debate has been updated. Thanks to u/JasonCarswell for the graphics work. An additional lowest level has been added of "Advocating violence against groups or individuals."

Fucking incredible.

Here's my rendering of Diderot:

And the admins will choke their users with the entrails of their hypocrisy.

Let's just let everyone call for violence against everyone, and be done with it.

Is it a call for violence, or an absurdist observation, like "when hell freezes over", if there even is a hell?

So historical quotes should be banned? "Give me liberty or give me death!" should go in the censored bin?

Sure you could argue that recent events and figures are historical. But who are they targeting?

Are they asking for violence against innocents of a different faith or race or sex or country or under a different economic system?

Or are they challenging the powers that manipulate, deceive, divide, exploit and exterminate?

Would banning you be violent enough? Or are you asking for more?

What is your game?

misquoting a philosophe?
