The free speech question is interesting. Obviously, I don't have free speech in your house. But, also, your house isn't squarely in public either. Forums like Reddit (and Hubski, too, obviously) are some public/private hybrids where it's not really clear where the line between free speech, and get-the-fuck-off-my-lawn is. I think that especially the teenie bopper mods sometimes don't have a subtle enough worldview to see this, and they always err on the side of their sub being their sub and no one else's.
