View submission: COVID denialism and policy clarifications
Straw man argument.
The point is the user suggested using it to get a sub banned.
You consider a sub that allows free speech dangerous?
What if others consider your speech dangerous?
I find you pathetic, and way more dangerous as an advocate of censorship.

Hah, of course you’re going to argue the “free speech” argument for that subreddit. Allowing free speech is good unless that speech is being used as a weapon. That’s why “conspiracy to commit a crime” is also a crime. Allowing people to freely undermine our medical system because they think they’re smarter than them is incredibly dangerous. Find me pathetic all you want but you’re just being a useful idiot. Arguing about free speech when the large issue at hand is misinformation. There’s a difference between censoring normal things like LGBT topics (that’s bad because there’s nothing wrong with LGBT) while censoring misinformation campaigns is part of the public interest in keeping people alive
