I would interpret your statement to indicate you are an opponent of free exchange of ideas.

I would interpret your statement to indicate you are an opponent of free exchange of ideas.
- kafkaesq 10y agoWhich you can, if you want. But that's not what my statement implies.
- ChefDenominator 10y agoThis is not correct. The people going to Gab are not going because of market preference, they are going because they are being forced out of current market leaders who do not desire to have free exchange of ideas on their networks. By extension, supporting of this movement means you do not support a free exchange of ideas.
- kafkaesq 10y agoSorry, but I don't buy your contention that the restrictions adopted by market leaders are about blocking the "free of exchange of ideas", per se. And apart of that, your "extension" would be a faulty generalization based on that contention.
- ChefDenominator 10y agoIt is not what those leaders perceive their actions to be, it is what their actions actually are. They are acting to reduce the capacity of people with some viewpoint from being able to communicate that viewpoint. It is not faulty. It is you who is applying a generalization in your claim.
- kafkaesq 10y agoI would say they "choose not to foster" rather than "reduce" of the capacity certain people to propagate their views. (Yes, there's a distinction, and a quite crucial one in fact).
