No, of course not, but usually devil's advocate is about discussing a relevant idea that you don't necessarily agree with. -

Weather in the 60s today. We where under snow a few days ago. Definitely !cigar weather this weekend. -

I made the mistake of thinking people where interested in my opinion. I get silly sometimes. -

Right. And anyone can subscribe to the them. I'm not sure how easy it is to block one account from an entire instance. -

The first couple Fallout games are pretty close to DOS. They might work. I'm fortunate enough to have a Windows box with Steam on it. -

I lost it and wandered deep into troll territory. I noticing now that other more experienced #fediverse members stayed out of it. -

Yes my house was nearly a foreclosure when I bought it. Would be a shame to repeat that. :) -

I'm not asking anyone to tolerate anything. You don't get content from Nazis unless you subscribe to it. Why can't people understand this? -

This working thing is tiring. I am out of shape after a few months off. Had a late deployment to do, but learned a lot. -

First day at new job. Very awesome. Running Linux servers and supporting Ruby on Rails devs. Looks like it's going to be fun. -

Kicking some mudcrabs in the behind. They should know not to mess with me by now. -

Adults should be able to handle offensive content without crying about it. But that doesn't mean you aren't welcome here. -

Are you serious? You can't see how banning someone is more controlling than blocking them? I give up. Good luck with your campaign. -

There has been ongoing conversation because a newer instances wants to ban offensive accounts. Nazis are just an example in this case. -
Jeff Ratliff (gomerx)'s status on Wednesday, 17-Feb-2016 16:19:09 EST Jeff Ratliff
I think a better solution is that people should not subscribe to offensive content. The attitude of trying to control others that is wrong. -

Do people really think an idea doesn't exist because we keep someone from speaking it? -

If there really where Nazis in the #fediverse I think I would want to talk to them and find out why they feel that way, not ban them. -
Jeff Ratliff (gomerx)'s status on Wednesday, 17-Feb-2016 15:00:01 EST Jeff Ratliff
I disagree. Being offensive is not enough to ban someone, people can just unsubscribe. BUt you can do what you want on your server -

But most of the arguments I have been making are technical not moral. A lot of us started instances partly to avoid censorship and control -

My concept of #freedom and the #fediverse concept of freedom are not the same. I'm more libertarian/anarchist. I ignore what I don't like.
