Looking at what's already been said I will most probably get down voted, but it should only back my words up.
People should be able to write everything they want on the internet. And I should have the right to totally ignore everything they say. So why should I become a snowflake and care about other people's opinion or think a big corporation will moderate somebody out of their platform? ๐ค
Because words have consequences. It's not just about "snowflakes", it's also misinformation. Do you not remember what happened during the Covid lockdowns? Do you not remember how Trump gained power?
You are of course free to ignore everything anyone says, unfortunately many people hang onto their every word and before you know it, being trans is now considered a mental illness by a load of people who get to make decisions about what happens to trans people when they need medical care.
