MODERATORS
Isn't there a way for individual users to completely hide an instance from their feed? Because I would just do that if it bothers you.
I'm not saying that some posts/instances aren't unethical, objectively incorrect, and/or dangerous, but widespread censorship is a slippery slope. If you want what you're able to see to be heavily controlled, there are probably other instances with that purpose. An instance that describes itself as general-purpose and for everyone probably isn't the place for that, though.
Censoring literal, open Nazis and pedos is perfectly fine by me, thank you very much. I don't think there's any "slippery slope" involved other than the risks of allowing such people free rein in open spaces.
Keyword literal.
But nowadays people like to call Nazis other people that don't agree with me and pedos weebs that like hs anime characters
So I agree with you if anything illegal is going on.
Are the Nazis advocating for violence and genocide and pedos distributing CP? sure block them and report them to the authorities.
But I don't care for fictional characters that doesn't even resemble real life humans.
Hot take I know.
Nazism, by its very nature, advocates for violence and bigotry. There are a lot of abhorrent viewpoints that are despicable before they become illegal.
Fuck them and fuck their claims and wanting free speech. That’s not even something they actually believe in.
There are some absurd people on this board with bad political analysis, but you can see that I edited the OP. Hopefully I didn't offend your identitarian tendencies or whatever that toe I stepped on was.
The name of the second instance, let me remind you, is "posting.lolicon.rocks". It seems to be run by an aggressively racist (loves to use the hard-r gamer word) pedo. Anyone who cheers what they even call lolicon is normally going to be some sort of 4chan-style sicko who probably pitched a fit at the Card Captor Sakura reboot having fewer upskirts.
