So... "I don't wanna hear it" = "Privilege Rescinded".

The problem with this, obviously, is that it assumes an arbitrary "ruling class" that decides what kinds of discourse is allowed and what isn't. Which is... problematic.

This specific topic is just about a nonsense cartoon show. But I'm definitely not okay with the idea that there are people in charge of deciding who Is and Isn't allowed to talk, and what they're allowed to say. That's what you're advocating for, and as I've said many times in the past, I absolutely don't agree with it.

The human race as a whole would do well to be less sensitive, than in getting into the habit of making "Everybody Stifle, I don't wanna hear it" a hard rule.

"Ergmagerrrrd, some people say Dumb Sh*t sometimes. Now NOBODY can say anything because I said so." That ain't a good look regardless of where it's applied.
