I'm curious if you ever came to a decision of your own after reading and being involved all the comments.

I think so :)

Originally my being ok with the ban was me reacting and not thinking, reacting to seeing the guy I'd noticed doing something I don't like "getting his comeuppance". It really only took someone to make me think to let me realize this. I've said before, one of the things I didn't like about Voat (seeing the front page filled up with stuff I really didn't like or agree with) is actually just a demonstration of the thing I like most about Voat, freedom of speech done properly. I've found in the past that its quite easy to get carried away with something I don't actually agree with just because "my feels" and when I just take a second to think I see it for what it is. So I generally try to keep that in mind, I guess today I just let it slip a little.

There's many places and for a very long time now where we've been quite literally conditioned to go with "muh fee fees" (and to accept those of others) instead of Thinking it through to see what is right or necessary. It takes time to overcome that conditioning but when you do, oh that sweet sweet brain function and freedom of thought, bay-bee!
