Joe, I think you're wrong about Conflict.

Anybody who defends infinite abuse to "bigots" is being dumb and should be called out on it.

Context matters, reality matters, anybody who gets off on othering somebody and then being shit to them because they are an "inferior other" is not acting in responsible good faith.

Again, twitter mobs are shitty arbiters of bigotry. And if we are more or less ok with any punishment to bigots then we better be damn sure that somebody is a bigot before treating them as such.

The fact is people who would condemn somebody for bigotry literally have no cap on the level of suffering that person should feel. If they are labeled a "bigot" then it doesn't matter what happens to them. This is not pragmatic. Our justice system is literally more tolerant towards murderers than our social justice system is tolerant to people who misspeak.
