Why should anyone get to own the only effective avenues of communication? Communication is what determines how the world works.

Who currently owns the "only effective avenues of communication"?

CP is illegal obviously, and jihad doesn't make sense in the cute cats category the way 'straight only game mod' makes sense in the 'game mod' category.

"Sometimes you gotta put up with some ugly if you don't want people silenced for their perspective." Seems there's a limit to the ugly you're willing to put up with, and you're quite willing to silence perspectives yourself.

You cleaely still want people to moderate social networks. I assume you'd want these people to outside the company?

Hell, we're on a site where you can literally filter what content you see. No one is so pro communication that they'll happily chat away to someone that they don't want to be around.
