Here on Lemmy, people who claim to advocate for freedom of speech and information, demanding for social networks to be shutdown and people to be censored based on unknown and ambiguous criteria, without even understanding the implications of it.

He just wants more censorship. They will ban “hateful” content, and then reclassify anything they don’t like as hateful. We’re already seeing a number of platforms and institutions labeling criticism of Israel as hate speech.

I mean, sure, but does that mean people get to express themselves everywhere all the time?

I go to work and there’s always a couple fuckers who bring up their hateful opinions in a “I’m not racist but,” way.

It affects my productivity when I have to hear that bullshit all day while trying to get them to stop in a diplomatic way.

I can’t say it so directly, but it’s not censorship to say “shut up and let me work”
