My take is 180 from this article. I see these online services blocking offensive content as a sign the internet is starting to mature. Bad actors are finally be de-platformed. Online communities and services are making the moral decision to no longer be part of the problem and are becoming part of the solution. The rise of hate in this nation has been greatly spured by granting the veneer of legitimacy to toxic people and their toxic ideas. It’s high time these platforms did the right thing and stop giving soap boxes to bad people.
