Or those who don't want to see it but aren't technical or motivated enough to fix it themselves
I think it's way worse to keep information from someone who wants to see it, than to let it be seen by someone who would prefer not to see it but isn't motivated enough to do something about it. Sort of by construction, actually - if the latter category really didn't want to see Twitter links, they would have done it themselves.
I think keeping fascist content away from unsuspecting people is good, actually
...we're talking about a ban of links to Twitter on a gaming subreddit. Those links would be to, like, game news. That's not "fascist content".
Fair, but the website still promotes it and requires you to log in to see the link contents, thus exposing you to the other content.
