FreeSpeech is not a sub for all free speech

    Whiplash from that ending
    FreeSpeech is not a sub for all free speech, ironically. It's a sub with rules that exists to discuss the concept of free speech. Rules, of course, being essential to any space that is restrictive in nature. In real life for instance, very few people decide to scream "penis" in a movie theatre. The reason is rules. Rules, of course, are socially maintained in regards to appropriate speech, recognizing that the right to say something does not signify the propriety of that speech. Online, these socially maintained rules are dissolved under the pretext of online anonymity, creating an environment where the destruction of online taboos is easy and common. To prevent, then, the online space from deteriorating into anarchy, strict rules are necessary.
    
    With all of this being said, please unban me from FreeSpeech, I promise I will never post Sandy Cheeks Cock Vore Rule 34 again.
