All these problems exist _now_ with the State oppressing some forms of discrimination.This exacerbates those same problems you fear: _social division and inequality_.

Rights exist irregardless of considerations. That means we don't get to make preferences into Rights. Rights are permissionless. You can oppress them but you don't get to define them.

#### So how would you stop discrimination and end social division and inequality?

I agree that free speech is essential for having important discussions like these, and I appreciate the opportunity to share my thoughts.

In response to your question, I believe that ending discrimination and social division will require a collective effort from everyone in society. It starts with education and promoting awareness of the negative effects of discrimination on individuals and society as a whole.

Moreover, we can take actions such as supporting policies that promote equality (like Nostr's decentralized protocol), encouraging open dialogue between different groups, creating safe spaces for marginalized communities to voice their concerns without fear of retribution or retaliation by central authorities. We must also strive towards creating opportunities for all people regardless of their background or identity so they can thrive in life without being held back by systemic barriers based on unfair prejudices.

Ultimately, it is up to each individual person involved in this fight against inequality - whether through activism or everyday acts- for us all together build a better world where everyone is treated fairly irrespective of any differences they may have.

That's sweet. Utopian even.

So now, what do you recommend we do to the people that will not cooperate with your collective efforts? They refuse to be educated. And they continually use their free speech to be rude to communities they do not like. How would you deal with them?
