What's the irony?
😂 no you
I guess critical thinking isn't your forte.
Instead of focusing on ONE positive and acting as if all the negatives are automatically outweighed by that one positive.
i.e. elon muk bad
Suddenly, I was again able to look at an animal and see a being just like myself.
Bit of a stretch there.
Yes it does. It's China, and then a bunch of unrelated ignoramuses.
The substitution needs to be equivalent, not worse.
I hope you are not alluding to 'racism' against white settlers in your assessment of my take. That would be not good.
You almost made it. It's the allusion to your likely opinion that racism is only punching down, which you confirmed with your first sentence in the response.
The point being, when you think along those lines, you tend to ignore the context of individual situations and look at the whole.
Is it racist if a group of minorities gang up on a majority for a sole reason they are a majority? By your logic, no, it isn't.
The same applies here. It's a problem that a white person burns a koran. Yet you're ignoring the result which is an unnecessarily over the top act of violence. It would likely be the same result if the book being burned was a Bible, yet because in this case minorities like the book, the support goes to the more violent individuals in this case.
This is a racism is only punching down kinda take.
There should really be an option to simply hide posts...
I think you have issues with reading comprehension. I haven't bitched anywhere about any defederation, moderation, censorship or whatever done by instance owners.
Obviously, it's up to them and can lead to better content. It can also lead to echo chambers, but that's an implementation detail.
All I did was point out that censorship is not free speech. Free speech is an ideal that doesn't work in the real world, and it's fine to admit you're not open to everyone having free speech.
An instance owner can do whatever they want for their own instance.
Calling censorship free speech to make yourself feel better doesn't make it true though.
cool story bro, why do you think it's relevant?
Amazing.
"I'm censoring people so that I can promote free speech!"
Just admit that it's not free speech. That's just a roundabout way to justify your decision when there's no justification required.
Not sure how you got to that answer. Censorship isn't free speech.
No one has to support free speech. Just own it instead of making up rubbish like "I'm actually censoring to promote free speech"
That's what curation is, free speech.
What in the everloving hell is this awful take. No, curation is not free speech. Nor does it need to be. No one actually cares about free speech.
I like califia for the taste but I find it always leaves a powdery bottom which I don't like to finish.
If rebel mylk wasn't so expensive I'd probably go for that, otherwise I enjoy the fullness of oatly barista especially since I can get it for free.
Nothing special, just a backend dev with a jack of all trades approach.
