The problem is that somewhere along the way, we decided that banning toxic users was some kind of infringement on "free speech". It's wild to me that people think sites like Twitter are a better place with previously banned but now reinstated toxic users.

It's because the people doing this had a test for "toxicity" with 100% sensitivity and 0% specificity. It's easy to catch criminals if you lock up everyone ever accused.
