The internet has always been about safe spaces. One of the great things I loved about usenet in the 90s was that different groups offered safe spaces where I could be myself among like-minded people.
The internet seemed to open things up a bit, but now we have a new wave of outrage and moralism that seems to think they can tell everyone else what to think and feel, and what information they're allowed to see.
Kind of ironic that the internet is being used as a tool for censorship now, given what it used to be.
