It's a tricky prospect, trying to balance hate speech and distinguishing it from someone simply expressing bad thoughts.
I guess I'm someone who came with a lot of poor, preconceived notions, and it took some time, patience, and radicalizing to arrive where I am today.
I've had some pretty awful takes over the years and said insensitive things, but it's other comrades who turned me on to better ideas.
That reminds me of the time a mod personally called me out by username on a post which led to me receiving insulting DMs and yet nothing was ever done :)))))))))))))))))))
