MODERATORS
I am a proud member of lemmy.ca (and lemmy.world) and let me tell you I have no idea what rammy.site is not the other one that was defederared from.
What I will tell you, as a left leaning person, is nothing of value is gained from crying wolf every time a person or people disagree with your beliefs even, and let me be perfectly clear even if your beliefs are the better ones.
Op. Step away from the keyboard and from Lemmy and get some fresh air.
"I'm left leaning but I'm totally fine with bigoted rhetoric being allowed around me."
In other words you're a right-leaning centrist.
No, he values free speech even if he doesn't agree with what is spoken.
Defederation is not censorship. The chuds over at remmy can continue to be chuds, and anyone interested in being a chud can go find them there. No reason for Lemmy.world to allow their garbage to spread over here.
It literally is...
..
Like that's the whole point of defederating them..
What do you people think censorship is? ๐ ๐คฃ
What do you think censorship is?
If I run a website, do I have to show the content of other websites to my users? If I stop showing another website's content to my users, am I censoring that website? No, I'm just not platforming reactionary garbage.
It literally is not. The levenshtein distance is 9.
Even ignoring any literal aspects, it isnt semantically either, since one means being censored from expressing an opinion, the other means opting not to listen to the opinion expressed. Censorship is restricting the freedom of the speaker, defederation is the listener exercising their freedom.
So a gutless centrist that's cool with right-wing rhetoric.
So a right-leaning centrist. Like I fucking said.
Keep up.
"Yeah guys I'm totally left wing, but we should totally hear out these people who want to kill entire groups of people for being different! They totally have something to add to the conversation and aren't just here to spread hate and disinformation!"
Free speech is the right to speak, not the right to be heard by people who don't want to hear.
There is not, nor has there ever been a right of free speech on Lemmy. Lemmy is moderated. If you don't like the moderation of a particular instance or community, you can start your own. And then you'll find out that free speech absolutism results in utter chaos.
Being for the idea of free speech, where everyone can speak, is not the same as the right to free speech.
Personally I would prefer everything be available with one account and I could choose what I block. Sometimes I want to see what the other side is saying, and sometimes I want to block certain groups and never see them again. I want to be well informed of what the other side thinks and why they think it, even if I don't agree with it.
Well lucky for you that's not at all what the poster said! So it's unclear what you're soap boxing about!
You don't understand what Free Speech is, do you?
That's what is happening here. People on rammy are free to speak what they want, people over here are free not to listen. Freedom.
