      Wait, how? Not like in general, obviously it sucks here, but how is this particularly egregious…?

        Because no where else in the world with free speech is this considered at all, let alone considered a good idea.

          …no where else in the world with free speech…

          Now, think about what you had to qualify there, and try to recognize what it means. Of all the places where free speech is tolerated, this is unacceptable -to the silent, powerless masses. 😶🤌🏼

          You think ya’ll don’t have community spaces? I have 100% seen things like this flying into numerous European countries and in the larger train stations, they just didn’t have the obnoxiously ostentatious signs (which I sorta appreciate having, though it’s form is laughable it’s a decent warning about what’s going on there so you can avoid it like the plague). It’s pretty common to have some sort of designated managed space within public spaces, with an admitted abstraction it’s not all that different from getting parade permits or reserving space in a park.

              I think that’s commonly what things like this are called, do you have a better name? Regardless of that though, that doesn’t really address that this is a very common concept across a great many cultures, most likely including your own.
