I have stated on this thread that I believe in a person's right to freely associate. The LWP was set up as a place where people of like "liberal" minds could hang out with each other and very specifically not be challenged by opposing views. This is stated in the introductory message for the thread. I believe that Voltaire has the right to exclude who he wants and I believe that these rights extend to the real world as well. I believe that I have the right to not welcome people who have opposing views into my home, I believe that if I have a club, that I can exclude whomever I choose. I guarantee that you exclude people from certain facets of your life, we all do. And that doesn't necessarily make us narrow minded bigots. Are the people on the RWE narrow minded bigots? Or are they simply reacting to be excluded from the LWP? But what if the LWP was simply a reaction to being excluded from another thread? Does that relieve them of the narrow minded bigot label just as it would the RWE? She censored you because you didn't follow the charter of the thread. Just because you want somebody to argue with you doesn't mean that they are obligated to do so.
