Again you're dodging that it is a moral question, not a legal one. We can all recognize that GameFAQs can legally do this. That's not what the question is. You are legally permitted to do all sorts of behavior that is immoral and wrong. The law and morality sometimes coincide, but not always.

Seeking to create an environment where people feel comfortable and striving to minimize discrimination is not in any way immoral.

Demanding that GameFAQs give up their own right to free speech by making them publish whatever you say, on the other hand...

Some people do think it's moral high ground to be able to push a button and censor someone who says something that they don't like. They won't admit it and it's indefensible, but most people aren't ok with something that they consider to be immoral.

You literally admitted earlier in this topic that there were decent arguments to this "indefensible" approach.
