I'm getting strong vibes of this:
> Conservative: I have been censored for my conservative views
> Me: Holy shit! You were censored for wanting lower taxes?
> Con: LOL no...no not those views
> Me: So....deregulation?
> Con: Haha no not those views either
> Me: Which views, exactly?
> Con: Oh, you know the ones
But by all means, let us know which views you have that are "not extreme or horrible" but also "instant ban"
- Pannoniae 3y agoFor example, if you mention in those right-leaning circles that certain drugs like psychedelics can have a positive effect, they get very angry. Or if you say that children should be capable of making more decisions (medical decisions like transitioning, or freedom to watch media) they'll scream abuse. Or if you express views about social media, certain video games and other forms of media being harmful to society and people, those people will get extremely defensive and horrid. (and say things like "but I enjoy it")
- SideburnsOfDoom 3y agoTo be clear, you are saying that you were banned from right-leaning circles on Mastodon for saying that "certain drugs like psychedelics can have a positive effect" ? Your views were around deregulation of drugs and the "right-leaning circles" didn't like that?
