They did leave, and then they made the new space where those discussion are not tolerated. We are talking inside one of such places.

Some people don't want to understand that there are discussion places which limit certain topics. They are not required to, and can freely leave and ignore them. They have plenty of other places where uncensored discussions can occur.

Twitter and Facebook aren't such spaces.

They're both based on models of unlimited growth, which means you're going to have unlimited viewpoints, which means you're going to have to #DealWithIt.

What you want, can be done on Hacker News because we're a focused community and most of us all have similar jobs, come from similar backgrounds, etc., or at least, there's enough of us that work in tech and enough of us that went to good schools that we're a more or less cohesive community with fairly similar values.

You don't have that with 5 billion users, sorry.
