Maybe it was flagged because you started a slapfight about LGBTQ issues on a thread about encryption; then started implying anyone disagreeing with you was a fascist bending over backwards to ban books, instead of a human with potentially justified objections to said material?

Just to potshot at a few

I didn't start anything, the OP asked what was next to be banned, and I answered with one area that is being banned right now that is relevant. And yes, fascists want to ban information that is against their worldview, that's not news. I won't be speaking in whispers about what's happening around me in the world; that's how fascists come to power, when good people are quiet about it. When relevant, I will talk about how they are perverting our laws to make progress on fascist things.

Edit: I like your edit with HN rules. It's interesting that often fascists like to utilize the rule of law to supress speech and dissent in order to pervert and take over control of the rule of law.

I am done in this thread, anyways, everything that had to be said was said, and it's irrelevant to discuss further.

I listed the guidelines you potentially broke when you claimed to have broken no rules. If you take that as me being a "fascist", then I suppose that's a problem with your own perception of the world. I encourage you to consider treating people more like humans with unique opinions to consider.

Humans that tell you what you're not allowed to talk about are not worth treating well

Neither do people who bring unrelated topics into discussions because they love soapboxing.

Slapfight with whom?

You can easily scroll down to see the off-topic tangent that GP has taken this thread into. Including some chime-ins that are somewhat unsavory from people that I suspect have a more ideological slant on this particular issue and probably aren't discussing in good faith.

You just answered without answering my question.
