You're not wrong. But how does that make a successful website when you ban everyone who challenges ideas? People are mean in real life, all some are, and I don't see how just banning what you don't like makes you prepared to deal with 'mean' people.

This is not a space for mean people. They are not welcome.

It doesn't, but why would you think that they ban everyone who challenges ideas? They only want you to be nice.

Maybe that doesn't perfectly prepare you, but not every website needs to do that. Other websites exist, on many of them you can literally be as mean as you want.
