Silencing Marginalized Voices

Hi poop maniac, 
Such elegant and tasteful word choice. I am unsure if this is another obscure shit posting or just a masterfully planned essay that you somehow managed to find the time to do. Either way, I think allowing people to continue to thrive and spread extreme opinions or hateful comments that may lead to harassment, sexual harassment, doxing, racism, targeting and any other warnable offense would drive the main community members, such as our admins, staff team, and regulars from playing on our servers. It would also allow for rules and guidelines to have no meaning as well which would, in turn, allow players that are discriminatory and hateful, or "toxic", to come into the server and ruin the community's reputation for a safe, welcoming place, but also, lead into the destruction of the community overall. Another point to bring up is "considering the other player's view points." I can see this being useful, if it's beneficial for the community and doesn't rely on hate or discrimination, but it can also be detrimental if we were to push this concept of "look at the other person's viewpoint and see where they are coming from," with the offender sending malice to whatever the receiving end may be. It's a lose-lose situation for community and for the players to permit these type of actions and statements to be loose. That is my stance on it and I agree with other individuals such as, @Ryan722,  @Foxka, @"Vrilly, ze floofy derg uwu", @dong, and @chelllman that this would not be acceptable. Thank you for providing some food for thought though and a debatable thread that can let players chime in on their thoughts for the community. I think that this thread would have most, if not all, of the community agree that this would be a bad concept to have. Pleasure to read your crazed and formulated thread.

Hi salter, great to hear from you! I don't want to dismiss what you said in your reply, but a lot of the points you addressed were addressed in my above mass reply. I'm glad you considered "walking in someone else's shoes," but I disagree that understanding a point of malice would be detrimental. Considering an unhealthy point of view gives us as individuals the opportunity to understand the source of a person's hate and, by extension, each other. Like I said, I don't think it is our responsibility as people to understand, nurture, guide and uplift our fellow human beings experiencing with us this most human of conditions, but we should leave the path open should some brave soul ever choose to take it, and perhaps even encourage ourselves to perhaps take that path more often than we otherwise wood.
Thank you for coming to my web post!

I would think that with your personal history in the community you might sympathize with this, but I understand and respect you if you do not!
