The thing is, what counts as "abuse" has considerably changed.

There seems to be a shift towards, how someone perceives something, not how something actually is.

That can mean, that it is no longer possible to speak about something unpleasant, as someone might consider that an insult - and that is then the opposite of freedom of speech.

In other words, I don't enjoy the assholeness of 4chan - but I also do not enjoy overly polite spaces, avoiding all controversy. I am not clear yet, what this Oasis seems to aim for, but it might be the latter.

Exactly this. It's worth pointing out how many comedians* have argued the dangers of today's "getting offended" culture. Not because they are 4chaners or far-right extremists, they certainly aren't, but because they appreciate the negative consequences it has for society.

* Rowan Atkinson, Stephen Fry, Ricky Gervais to mention some of the most outspoken.
