Go here:

http://perspectiveapi.com/

Go down the page to "What if it were easier to find new perspectives?" and try moving the slider around to add or remove the messages that their technology rated more toxic.

Imagine it applied to any online discussion. Imagine an error message:

Your message is 74% toxic. It cannot be saved until it is less than 50% toxic. Please edit your message and resubmit.

Pretty wild stuff. Your thoughts?
