“Censored”? It’s still visible, and also, maybe most people just think it’s a silly assertion.

    If it was flagged within 5 minutes of you posting it, that means a ton of people found it highly disagreeable within a very short period of time. I've posted unpopular comments before, and the threshold for actually getting a comment removed is (IMO) quite high.

    As someone born in Russia, I find the comparison between the "censorship" described here, and the totalitarian censorship wrought by Russia and China, to be downright offensive. Nobody gets black-bagged in the middle of the night for talking smack about the ruling powers in the US. The fact that I hear constant whining about "censorship" by the very people being "censored" on mainstream social media just points to how little of it there actually is.
