Saying unalive instead of suicide or censoring words like rape to r*pe.
It’s mostly on TikTok and YouTube but it spilled into other platforms as well since users are uncertain what they can say sometimes.
Thankfully with federation, we the people are in control of speech and not Nazis, so we can have environments where we not only openly talk about rape and suicide, but also advocate for the violent overthrow of the U.S. government AND ban Nazis and hate speech at the same time.
Because humans, as it turns out, are capable of exercising good judgement and common sense.
People-run environments that ban Nazis unironically have more freedom of speech than the corporate authoritarian garbage that doesn’t.
If that doesn’t show the free speech argument is just a disingenuous motte and bailey meant to trick people into arguing about free speech so no one directly addresses the hate, nothing will.
