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.

      I'm not sure, but I was banned by a bot for having previously commented in Bernie subs. From what I've seen, the bot bans you instantly upon your first post if you've ever posted in non-ML leftist subs.

      Before that they were banning people for saying "dumb", before that it was catgirls.
