I guess I should just let you beat up on a strawman and ignore it?

That precise “arguing all the fucking time, any time I leave lemmy.ml”

But I don’t! I really enjoy posting on lemmygrad and hexbear too. It’s just whenever I have to interact with reddit.world and other such liberal instances it turns into arguments because we disagree so fundamentally on issues that I am passionate about.

I’m not too stupid to understand the complexity of the wider world. I’m not so arrogant to think people shouldn’t be allowed to disagree with me. Again, what are you even talking about? I’m happy that you libs have your own instances! That’s why I’m on lemmy.ml and not one of the instances that .world defederated from - I want to talk to y’all sometimes, even if we disagree on so many things.

So maybe stop beating up on this strawman?

What is the point of the fediverse having built-in censorship to ban ideas, views, and opinions?

Because that’s what normal people want?

What are you even talking about? I’m on lemmy.ml because it’s still federated with y’all, I just prefer to post in their instance because I don’t always feel like arguing all the fucking time.

They’re outsourcing development of their platform onto independents who will work for free to advance the project, which then improves the value of their platform. It’s the same design philosophy behind the Android Open Source Project.
