    Because deplatforming works. Because tolerating intolerance eventually results in the tolerant being extinguished.

    If I’m hosting a party and there’s a Nazi on my front lawn, I don’t care if I and my guests can mute them, block them, whatever. I’m going to get rid of them. I don’t want new guests seeing them when they arrive. I don’t want every single person to have to be exposed to the Nazis first before they can then block them out. I don’t want the Nazis to exist at all. Nazis don’t deserve to exist. We went to war to kill Nazis and I’d vote to do it again if I could.

    It’s our house. Our community. No. Fucking. Nazis. No toxicity. We don’t have to suffer them to exist.
