    Yea it’s definitely done only to be able to oppress non-liberal opinions.

      What opinions do you think will be suppressed exactly? Never saw anyone get banned from anywhere for defending lower taxes or deregulation.

        Spoiler for those who don’t want to follow the whole conversation:

        @golfnovemberuniform@infosec.pub is a tankie concern troll who tried to subtly suggest that liberals won’t allow criticism of violence against Russian civilians, an RIDF dogwhistle that boils down to “opposing Russia’s invasion of Ukraine means you want innocent Russian people dead”, but did it so awkwardly and badly that it just came across like he’s been licking his favorite Garfield painted glass mug every day for 20 years.

        No I meant opinions on more sensitive topics such as religion and what Meta is allowing now.

          Can you give concrete examples? I don’t see anyone being banned for saying they go to church on Sunday either.

            I don’t have examples. I can’t see banned posts anyways. I only have experience on other FOSS networks and Mastodon team’s recent posts about their opinions on stuff like that.

            So it’s mostly my assumptions and not well proven predictions.

              Let me rephrase, can you give a concrete example of an opinion that you think would be censored?

                  I’m not an admin. I just want to know if anything that would actually qualify as free speech is being censored or not.

                  It just seems that you are arguing on extremely vague hypotheticals in bad faith. And I’m assuming you are doing so because you want to promote hate speech, but you don’t want to admit it.

                  What are admin/am i supposed to do, you can also dm something to me if you feel better about that

                  Or you could explain a specific situation without ratting anyone out

                  You’re not a coward, are you? Just tell us you wanna be racist, instead of pussyfooting around it. Say it with your whole chest.
