Yep, I'm tired is not an argument and I hope @atko doesn't weigh these comment in for the count.
People's main argument is that they don't like it. Well, that's too bad, or they are going to get a boring site. It won't even work commercially because these people are never going to be tired of racism (I'm not saying that's bad) but they will quickly become tired of any alternative voice. Your userbase will be locked in. It won't be commercially successful and will be boring, all because people were tired of other people's speech. Anti-censorship gives voat the ability to change. User selected censorship will not.
These arguments should be ignored. I would mirror the db for these so you can identify and delete them without actually deleting them so you can weight only the real arguments. There are some on both sides that provide real arguments, but those are all the comments that should be considered.
