There was a time when we had a discussion about what’s ban worthy on the old LW. We included the encouragement of illegal violence. I would like to have a section about this under “off-limits”.
No blanket ban on encouragement of violence, because it should be okay to advocate for wars.
No blanket ban on the encouragement of illegal conduct because it should be okay to advocate consumption of illegal substances.
[I read the above as saying that we should have a ban on encouraging violence.]
I feel like this is just an ad-hoc ban, based on a general statement which doesn’t actually seem to hold and then modified where necessary to accomodate public disagreement.
