Mrs. W. T. Rowe w/o
gollark: You seem to be pushing the definitions of "harm" pretty far.
gollark: Tolerating as "you may say/do this" versus "I support you saying/doing this", maybe.
gollark: Okay, "say/do", yes.
gollark: > have any of the ideologies affected by the things facebook/twitter/whatever do been worth a damn?I don't know. Maybe. I just don't exactly want social media companies having vast amounts of power to control public thought just because they're maybe not misusing it much now.
gollark: I mean, transphobia/fascism/etc aren't really making scientific claims.
