Free speech cannot be sacrificed. We’ll lose everything.

You're posting this on HN, a platform that has moderators and doesn't allow certain things to be said. So you implicitly agree that there is a trade-off between free speech and ability to live in a community.

Unlike the people in this comic, I'm actually making a point, which you seem to have missed: community, by necessity, doesn't work with absolute freedom. What matters is what we agree to compromise over and why we do so.

No, not really. I’ll put up with draconian and biased moderation to skim curated tech articles in the morning before I start my day. Don’t confuse that with how exist in society.

I support some extremely limited baseline censorship. Pretty much just "don't incite violence or get people harmed/killed". But I guess you need a World War ravaging your continent first to get there.
