If I may employ a forums analogy, even though I don't know why I'm bothering to explain anything to you: A local movie theater plays films all the time that various people in that community have no interest in ever seeing. It goes without saying that some people won't want to see Bridget Jones's Baby or others won't want to see Wild Life (3D). No one protests outside the theater or writes letters to the venue owner because of a movie they don't like. Some people would indeed do those things if the theater started playing The Birth of a Nation, or Nazi party propaganda reels, because those things and these threads are so despicable and devoid of any redeeming quality that it degrades the community itself and serves as an embarrassment even to people who would simply not see them.
