    “thought crime”? And you have the balls to talk about using words “by their meaning”?

    This is a solid action with a product to show for it, not a thought, which happens to impact someone’s life negatively without their consent, with potentially devastating consequences for the victim. So, can you please use words by their meaning?

    Edit: I jumped the gun when I read “thought crime”, effectively disregarding the context. As such, I’m scratching the parts of my comment that don’t apply, and leaving the ones that do apply (not necessarily to the post I was replying to, but to the whole thread).

      The author of those comments wrote a few times what in their opinion happens in the heads of others and how that should be prevented or something.

      Can you please stop interpreting my words exactly the way you like? That’s not worth a gram of horse shit.
