Illegal I can begrudgingly agree with. Even though I am a proponent for piracy, I will conceed that for growth's sake, the tools need a clear well defined path to moderation.

That being said, who's to say what IS immoral and evil?

In the republicans minds, porn is evil and should be banned. Trans rights are evil and should be banned. Abortion is evil and should be banned.

I disagree with all those claims. I do not think any of them are immoral, or evil.

I think pineapple on pizza is wrong, and evil. Some agree, others don't. If I had my way, promoting of pineapple on pizza would be banned.

Now, who's to say what is, and what isn't evil? I think the only clear line to a moderation approach is to have a clear, unquestionable set of rules. These rules are to be based on public laws.

Everything else, I feel you should have the freedom to do as you wish. But also, I believe other people that you don't agree with should be free to do as they wish.

You may never know how someone feels, or understand their perspective, but as long as they aren't breaking laws, I feel they should have the ability to feel that way consequence free.

I may not like that you put pineapples on your pizza, but I feel that you should have the right to enjoy it. Even if it goes against MY views as to what constitutes a REAL pizza! Much to my surprise, pineapple on pizza ISN'T illegal. So you should have the right to enjoy it......

And yes. I did take the most pandtentic example I could think of, in order to display the absurdity of the concept of how easy it is to accept others rights in this world that don't affect you.

Now just apply that same concept to every other example in the world. Then take into consideration that by using vague undefined terms to define your rules, you create grey area that's easy to exploit. Who's to say what IS evil? Adults told their teenagers in the 1950s that Elvis was evil. Parents in the 1920s told their teenagers that jazz was evil.

We need to define the terms that define our rules.
