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.

    Making a post, expecting it to be ignored since that's typically how Redditors behave.

    But please explain, if you "don't think that's what's happening there", what rule was broken? Is asking someone not to lie about what you said breaking a rule? Is expressing an opinion that some people are too aggressive and unwelcoming with their insults breaking a rule? Is saying trans women with differing opinions deserve to be heard breaking a rule?

    I'm fascinated to hear how any of those posts breaks any rules aside from "getting too uppity".
