Why don't the more sensitive just mute those who bully them? Isn't it being to sensitive on internet? It will never be a polite promised land..life ain't like that at all.

It’s both, but I think the general consensus here is that in a world of mostly good people, with the power of full freedom of speech, many of us feel the responsibility to use that freedom to call out assholes when they’re being malignantly antisocial.

Part of how organic free society forms is that when someone behaves in a way that is unacceptable to the other individuals, the one who acted out is shamed or ostracized, and learns that the rest of the society will not voluntarily associate with him if he doesn’t modify his behavior.

Yeah but the bad actors should be cut out when possible. To heck with that toxic crap. Doesn’t mean I don’t pull a weed from my stoop when I see one.

Just a random thought I had: design nostr to have a yin and yang element to it. Create spaces for the two polarities and you choose where you want to spend your time. I think we haven't explored hidden/private groups enough either.
