down at the pub having a beer is you can’t ban the bloke down the pub and never hear out see him again.

I have watched bars kick out people countless times and know for a fact that some will refuse service to folks who repeatedly cause issues.

As for your description of these wonderful open dialogues happening at bars, I’ve literally never seen that in my life. People don’t just walk around challenging random people to debates and begin arguing with them. People also tend to act way nastier online than they do in person.

I also feel I need to remind you that this entire comment chain started because you talked about leaving this community because you don’t like what people are saying. Perhaps you should stay out of this bizarre moral imperative to hear all opinions and let everyone have your attention?
