Honestly, that title made me throw up in my mouth a little and the article made it worse.

Not everything needs to be moderated and fear mongering because terrorists are supposedly using certain social media doesn't help that much either.

If criminals can't use a certain platform due to moderation they can simply hop to some other platform.

This post is nothing more than "think of the children".

Rationalization for silencing people that OP disagrees with. Just call them "terrorists" and now it's moral.

OP would've been a member of the Blue Police.

I'm sorry, is there another title you would like to use for mass murderers who engage in mass murder for the purpose of causing terror? Is there somebody here who agrees with ISIS, with their position that people who don't love ISIS shouldn't have heads?

I don't think I need to rationalize my position that scammers and killers are bad and should not be given a free platform upon which to reach hundreds of millions of people with unlimited video uploads. I think that's a perfectly rational position as is.

I don't think opposing neo-Nazi conspiracies makes me a Nazi. I do think you said that in a weak attempt to shut down all rational discussion here.
