Is a messy question without a good answer

Gods yes, which is why I was curious since your initial reply was about censorship.

Sorry if its a bit of an overly American rant.

No need to apologise it's relevant here and I'm forced to think about this crap a lot these days.

I'm less opposed to violent resistance myself I decided as an Albertan looking at the seperatist movement here. Let's say the worst case scenario happens and our traitor leading party, Smith, and the foreign influencers game the system enough to force it to happen despite being majorly unpopular and their plan is to become a 51st USA state. I do think there's enough people fed up with traitor Smith to force her out kicking and screaming if it came down to it.

That said I agree with you that any instance admins who don't want the heat are justified in not allowing anything risky to their own well being. I'm thankful for those who are willing to risk their own necks however. It's harder to organise offline I think with the death of 3rd places in our two countries.

My inkling is I'd be initially joining with the natives on a reserve to organise. These are people who are suing Alberta gov currently because AB has no rights to their land and their treaties are not with Alberta, only the federal government. They've burned Catholic churches to the ground in response to Residential School mass graves and blocked train tracks to protest land right violations in the recent past. I like their spunk.

...I'm getting way into the weeds for a good news forum, shit. Sorry guys.
