>You think that 7-11 selling eggplant parm or a specialty food shop deciding to sell some other specialty food are extremes?
No, I've been talking about slavery part.
>And is totally legal in those countries which clearly have different ideas about what is ok than you do and therefore may legitimately expect Amazon to operate with their ideals just like you expect Amazon to operate with yours.
Fortunely we have ethics, morality, international laws, human rights and many more and we're actually able to draw conclusions that slavery is bad.
>Everyone who studies media, culture, psychology, and the relationship between trauma and lifelong suffering disagrees with your framing of this, so you're probably missing something.
No doubt that I'm missing something.
>They aren't. They're deciding what they sell.
Limiting access can be form of it.
Google removing something from its search is really being close to some kind of censorship.
Google pushing one narration over other in its search index is very significant way of creating the "truth".
Some people says that a lie repeated thousand times becomes a truth and I definitely believe that it's true to significant extent.
>Sidebar curiosity: Do you know what "trigger" actually means, and does your minimization of it mean that you don't believe that PTSD is real or serious?
I do believe that PTSD is real, but I'm not talking about trigger as of flashbacks.

- BugsJustFindMe 6y ago> slavery is bad. If it's so universally bad, why is it legal in all of those countries? And it wasn't always considered bad. Should Amazon in the 1820s have been abolitionists or slavers? Maybe one day we'll all conclude that calling different gender and sexuality mental illness is bad and Amazon will have been on the right side after all.

That's not solid, we live and try to measure this against _now_, we also learned form our mistakes and improved. >Maybe one day we'll all conclude that calling different gender and sexuality mental illness is bad and Amazon will have been on the right side after all. Both outcomes are possible, so they're either ahead of time or just yet another censors? I'd rather not rely on corpos/people in power believing that they're "ahead of time".
