I'm fine with censoring Nazism myself.

So you should be proud of Germany censoring games such as Wolfenstein.

I didn't know that Wolfenstein promoted Nazism.

When you want to censor an idea like Nazism as you propose, one can go to any lengths to censor what they view to be promoting Nazism.

I can't go to any lengths because I don't have ultimate authority.

That's not a legit justification to censor people's opinions or attempt to control other's thoughts.

I think Nazism should be front and center so people can see how evil it is. We aren't killing enough Nazis in video games.

*Points to the anti-vaccination movement*

Yeah, what could possibly go wrong?

Again, my point still stands.

The most harmful kind of people are the ones who want to control other people and the way people think.

Does that mean the anti-vaccination movement needs to be stopped?

They don't want to control others.

Huh? They want to prevent their children from receiving potentially life-saving vaccination and want to get it into other people's minds that vaccination is harmful.

That's no different the parents who get their kid to transition when it's 5. It's a matter of perspective.

So, what was your argument supposed to be again?

This is a internet gaming forum where the majority of the opinions expressed are unsubstantiated. Not even the estimates are that trusted. Wanting to ban someone for having an unsubstantiated opinion kinda defeats the point of the forum. This isn't some forum on mathematical theory where it would make sense to have a requirement to back up everything.

We kinda devolved into giving examples of why it's okay or not okay to censor/weed out subjectively bad opinions.

Great Post. Should we ban ioi or machina everytime they get a sales estimate badly wrong? Haha.
