Let's not forget the foundation of the game we all play and love is based on criticism. Instead of being quick to cast judgement on a fellow player, we should at least hear them out before condemning them with a black and white label.
This wasn't "quick to cast judgement" or "black and white labels". They were put in a gaol for offensive language. A GM already "sentenced" them, for lack of a better word. This isn't like people are forming opinions based on an accusation. OP got busted for breaking a rule, and people are allowed to have opinions on it. Including opinions that you don't agree with.

Though a lot of these posts were also people trying to explain to OP how to interact with strangers to avoid it happening again, with a bunch of people coming in and saying "how can you even know how to be civil towards strangers". Read the whole thread instead of thinking you're some saviour for the OP, cheering for them because everyone is being so unfair.
