Well, it's not that all of them have admin rights directly on the database. Curt of course has, but given the general degree of paranoia very few people else. So, that much about Hooray.
And well, no offense, but the lack of historical knowledge seems to be the main reason why people hate historical examples. The Nazi party was also quite low organized in the beginning and everybody there did just what came to their minds. Not in the form of a strong hierarchy but united in hate against a certain group. And you are right, they were firing each other up there and then each one did what he could. Hitler held speeches, Himmler spread hate and Goebbels wrote satire and other stuff. The one thing that still dazzles me is, how many people said back then, those guys are harmless, you don't need to take them serious. They are just a bunch of loonies. Well, yeah, that paid out for everyone, right?
Free speech can never be achieved by dictatorial measures!
