I stopped reading here Avi, as it looks like you lost a little of your senses, and I actually don't want to see that, so I stopped reading.

You do have one social media interface, same as me, its this one, it is a kind of social media, and you have responsibility to be a voice of sense, and it is not sensible to be thinking any human can police the speech of others, not in any way at all.

Sticks and stones, remember?

If you prefer a more scientific argument, take network theory, recall Metcalfe's law, which basically says all people in the network should have unrestricted two way communications to every other. This is the ideal network in reality, which offers maximum benefit ("Value") to humanity.

Cancelling, bullying, scaremongering, shaming, or whatever, to try to silence folk saying things we might not want to hear, does not add value to the network, it takes value away from the network, it takes the benefit of the network away from humanity.

This is what any restriction of freedome of speech or communications between folk does, and we have mathematical proof of it, which you are ignoring as a scientist, if you believe otherwise.
