Not whether it is a terrible thing to say. But whether saying it should be banned.

Here’s a super simple example.

Jerk: “I think we should shoot immigrants” Non-jerk: “that’s a bad idea because immigrants have souls” Former-jerk: “good point. I changed my mind and no longer think shooting immigrants is a good idea. In fact, I will now dedicate my life to helping the needy and everyone who reads this thread should as well.”

It would be bad to ban a thread such as the one above.
