I know we are trying to evolve our system of beliefs with regards to ethics.

All rules of ethics do not carry the same weight. I think that certain rules of ethics are what I call Prime Rules. For instance, 'do not allow anyone to harm you or others if you can prevent them'.

This fear of censorship is starting to sound, to me, like the blanket answer for all dissenting voices, "You are being a racist", even if it has nothing to do with race.

If someone is using the platform to harm others (whether it is for his profit or not, since there are many motivations) all I think is important is that we ask ourselves, "What would be the decent thing to do." (Being Decent is also one of my Prime Rules - but most of the world seems to have fogotten what being decent is).

If someone is causing harm, we must stop that person, whatever his or her race, but it is also important we debate the reasons we took such action. If you see harm being done, you do not first stop to take a few years considering whether you should take action, or then you - each person harmed after you recognised the harm being scattered about you - become partly responsible for the harm caused. In a way, your silence and lack of will to stop him, is or could be said to be a form of aiding and abetting.

He - or they - are not being stopped, they are still free to cause harm, but without the aiding and abetting of "thearkymark' and his tool 'buildawhale'. It is not only his right to stop his tool being used by any of us, it is also his duty, if he wants to live with his good conscious.
