I am opposed to the government regulating speech, so you got that part wrong; I fully support freedom of speech as it is defined in the US Constitution. Here, I/we are talking about something else, free reach, which no one has a right to and which absolutely should be regulated. Here's an article with more detailed information if you'd like to educate yourself on the topic: https://www.wired.com/story/free-speech-is-not-the-same-as-free-reach/ https://www.wired.com/story/free-speech-is-not-the-same-as-f...

I don't need wired to "educate myself" over internet censorship. It's hilarious that after benefitting over a decade from left leaning censorship by platforms suddenly its a huge problem when the same platforms supposedly censor the other way. Once again the solution would be to treat public internet spaces like public spaces in real life but ofc you wouldn't like that because other peoples opinions are literally hitler :)

  I was trying to give you a light/high-level overview of the problem of free reach (which, by the way, I’ve been advocating against for at least a decade if not longer). But if you don’t want to understand the problem beyond “censorship bad,” or respond to what I’m actually saying, I can’t help you. Take care.

    Nice try taking the high horse after name calling and advocating for censorship. Maybe go this way first next time to appear less fascist.

      I'm sorry that you feel that way, but I stand by everything I said in all of my previous comments and I'm not attempting to correct, change, or cover up any of it. Nothing I said previously amounts to advocating for censorship and if you read it that way even after I attempted to clarify, it's your problem, not mine. If you have any specific questions about anything I said that appears contradictory to you, or if you'd like to discuss what I'm actually advocating for (regulation of free reach), I'm happy to have a discussion about it. If you want to stay angry and uninformed about it, that's your prerogative as well. Have a good day.
