Have you considered that written words that remain uncontested (or unpunished if against the law) can lead to actions outside of the Internet where people are killed?
Free speech just for the sake of it is not good for societies. I don’t know Gettr but Telegram is also a place where people can be safely wrong on the Internet. And it leads to calls for politicians to be murdered. Groups radicalize themselves in their thought bubbles, take the protest (in their eyes justified) to the streets, and even murder people (in their eyes justified) all because they can be safely wrong on the Internet.
- greensalad 5y agoYou are right, and that is why I want Twitter to cancel the account of the Taliban spokesman for terrorism, Saudi Arabia, whose king is a known killer, Iran leaders, for promoting homophobia, Egyptian government accounts for being a dictatorship, Chinese embassies Twitter accounts for defending the genocide in Xinjiang and a dozen other countries accounts should be cancelled too, as well as violence promoted by antifa twitter accounts, everybody should be boycotting Twitter until they stop promoting terrorism, violence and genocide, , it is disgraceful they are allowing the radicalisation of people that will end up in people being killed.
