This is not about what is " offensive". This is about arguments from ignorance and sheer bigotry being taken on. We have a moderator here who defends the bigot-in-chief and castigates the rest of us for calling him on it. Who prefers us to remain silent, apparently, whilst the bigot gets free rein. Her blessing, almost, it seems, to spout his illiberal nonsense, preferably unchallenged. None of this has anything to do with free speech, first bloody amendments or the right to not be offended. If you have a section where free discussion is allowed, that includes being able to tell a bigot that he's a bigot, and why. It includes being able to tell science-deniers that they are ignorant, and why. Otherwise it isn't a section for free discussion. If it isn't, say so. Cards on the table. I don't mind, honest.
