Adfree Cities: for happier, healthier cities

If you don't want to see X, you just have to no look. Being offended by X, doesn't mean that you have an inherent right to ban X.

X throughout the times were/are ads, black people, campaign billboards, crossdressing and Pride parades.

Every time someone says "it should be banned, because I don't want to see it in public" is eerily reminiscent of the arguments of homophobes that I hear all the time.

"I don't want to see" or "it offends me" must never be a reason for banning something. It's not sufficient.

You're right.

Because no one can ever have an opinion that is opposite to you and your claims never require evidence to back them up.

Calling someone a troll, because you just throw out absurd claims expecting everyone to take your word for it - is quite arrogant.
