≠ Brett Stevens ≠ (amerika@freespeechextremist.com)'s status on Wednesday, 24-Jan-2024 14:44:40 JST≠ Brett Stevens ≠ On the WJ Maggos thought experiment:
https://freespeechextremist.com/notice/Ae5dpDiAjF0uol3sIq
Here, he posted some politically incendiary material in a thread started by a well-known and widely-admired user about the death of his canine companion.
My thesis: he wanted to create an equivalent of a racial slur or insult to see if people would call for censorship.
Unexpected: they seem to want to debate him or beat his ass instead.
It's a useful thought experiment but I think should move from the original thread.
