Apparently they are.

Yes, sadly, freedom of speech includes freedom of hate speech. The platform would have to rely on its users downvoting or ridiculing the offender rather than outright bans.

The billionaire purchased media will radicalize a small racist and stupid portion of your population. That portion will grow like a cancer. Then the billionaires will pick some reality tv star or other bad actor to step up and take the reins of this hate group. Fight it now or lose your country like US citizens have.

I got banned yesterday and did not know what Lemmy was until I did a search for Reddit alternatives.

If you post on r/conservative they will actually stalk you and look through your posts to report stuff … but you report them and that is ok.

Same here.

Because that word combination just makes sense.

I think what pissed me off most with Discovery was them stealing that Tardigrade storyline from a videogame and then fighting the poor game developer down to the last in court. Also, that storyline made no sense for Star Trek.

Yes, but that is like being banned on a specific Reddit. You didnt follow the rules. Reddit will ban you from the entire platform.

Yes, this is exactly what it is. A call for violence against liberals? No worries. A statement that violence may be the only option left to fight a government controlled by billionaires? Banned.

Incorrect. I got banned yesterday for “Eat the Rich” and Luigi favoritism. I believe the post in question (you never know with a Reddit ban because they dont show you) was responding to someone’s post that mentioned the French Revolution with a Guillotine gif and “Git-r-Done”.

Yea, apparently I was plotting murder or something by doing that.

I have a strange opinion, but here goes: The Right to Free Speech (Im in the US here), should protect you from censorship. Doing what Reddit is doing should be considered a Rights violation and we should be able to sue them into the ground.

That is a bank rush. It’s how banks die if enough people do it.

They will radicalized your small population of idiotic racists with this media and grow them like a cancer.

This is exactly what it is. You don’t get out of paying just by relinquishing citizenship.

My wife and I wondered why they just don’t offer people a million per household member to leave the country. Maybe help with citizenship paperwork to other countries.

I’m glad I’m not the only one that thinks this. Biden didn’t open the door for Trump, but he did stand aside. Bernie would have shredded Trump … but you know, apparently primaries are the devil.

Yes, this is the exact mentality.

I got banned yesterday for basic “Eat the Rich” quotes with the occasional Luigi or Guillotine animated gif thrown in here or there.

Reddit is cracking down on anticapitalists for sure.

He is just trolling. It’s a MAGA thing.

Yes, just don’t shop at Target.
It’s strange that people forget that businesses like Target getting rid of DEI also gets rid of many disability act initiatives. There should be more outrage than just a boycott.
