Sadly I agree with this. It seems like the best summary of how most people treat free speech is basically:
"If my side is the underdog, talk about how important it is and complain that we're being censored, and if my side is winning, talk about how it's not necessary and those people can go elsewhere"
It was extremely obvious when Twitter was bought by Musk and the rules changed to favour far right wing content and rhetoric. Suddenly all the folks talking about that XKDC comic and no free speech on a private platform had a very different tune once their side was the one getting banned or censored there...
If you disagree with how a platform is run, go somewhere else.
- zen928 3y agoI agree that it's sad you agree with this.
- ipaddr 3y agoNo matter what people say it's a private company and they can censor or use your data anyway they wish. If you don't like it go elsewhere. I hate that idea but I accept it. If I didn't accept this then I am in favor of random political entities dictating what is accept content.
