Twitter’s CEO just violated their own TOS because he’s a butt hurt little baby about people finding out he only tells lies.

There is nothing in China that will ever harm you as much as the American Government does. Ever.

But keep giving your info to the NSA, I’m sure they’re good people with good intentions. Surely.

Well, that's how "biased free speech" works.

I mean it is funny, but there's a chasm between government censorship and whatever xitter is doing.

that pic of the woman saying Dumb NWORD , followed up by a rebuttal Dumb Cracker (the latter was taken down by admins) tells you all you need to know about elon musk

Crazy thought: What if both platforms are bad?

Man on floating whale corpse: "Your boat stinks!"

Man on burning garbage scow: "What?"

At least the whale is biodegradable!

If you cannot host it, you cannot own it. If you cannot own it, it's not resistant to censorship.

And this here is the exact reason im on lemmy.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

Don't pretend we're free to post literally anythere here, either. There's rules.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 hours ago

Its kind of a choose which rules you want. You have to agree with the hivemind but you can choose which one. At least this exposes the communities to each other to mix ideas. While i hate .ml they do have some stuff that is good.

different instances have different rules,there are instances that are more homophobic and others that are more lgbtq. instances can choose to federate or not with other instances, however those instances that most disagree with will still exist.

Lemmy.ml: Comment removed for rule 1. Banned from all communities.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

I knew someone would mention it but on lemmy if youre banned from one instance you can just use the other 200 instances

[–] [email protected] 9 points 4 hours ago

Aye of course, just poking fun that it's not always free from the same bullshit here too!

[–] [email protected] 38 points 7 hours ago (31 children)

Has Lemmy just been completely flooded with CCP apologists now?

RedNote ToS includes provisions that require you to post "correct views on history, nationality, state, or culture".

I guess if you believe Taiwan should be "returned" to the mainland, Uhghurs deserve to be "re-educated" and enslaved, and that China is the natural and rightful pre-eminant global power... you're gonna be fine.

Lmao yes, have you not been spending much time on here? The second biggest instance is run by tankies

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 hour ago

Let's just say I roll with the stricter, more traditional definition of "tankie" not the current definition which is much closer to "people I disagree with"

Yes, I'll take my downvote now sir.

[–] [email protected] 39 points 6 hours ago (4 children)

I took it as "don't pretend we don't have censorship too"
