Well, I'm fairly sure it doesn't apply to you, but the hypocrisy of wanting people banned for unpopular opinions/being mean whilst being mean to the people who have unpopular opinions/are mean. If you don't think people should be mean to you/others, you don't get a pass to be mean just because someone's mean. Say I'm in a bar that prides itself on everyone being allowed to swear, but one day, a guy says the mother of all swear words. He says cunt. Sally at the bar doesn't like the word cunt, so she thinks he should be thrown out. She says "Throw the asshole out." If Sally's idea flies, then people who don't like the word asshole can have her thrown out and so on down the line. I don't think it needs that much explaining.

I'm a big fan of the maxim "two wrongs don't make a right."
