PieFed has done it once again, this time adding 'warning' labels for opposing ideological perspectives, well at least one; Can't find any warnings for fascism or capitalism ๐Ÿค”

This can be demonstrated here: https://piefed.social/c/globalnews/p/1697164/sudan-civil-war-spills-over-into-neighboring-chad-peoples-dispatch

But why? I don't understand why you want to make your software politically charged. I'm left leaning, but I believe in free speech for all. This makes piefed a censored platform by default. You are manufacturing an echo chamber.

I don't want fascists to benefit from my work. But it's FOSS, so anyone can download and install it, so I made it extremely unattractive to fascists.

There are plenty of other places where people can have "free speech".

Facebook, or reddit, for example. /s

Heh, this puts Piefed in the same basket as Reddit, Facebook etc. for the same reasons you dislike them.

Fork PieFed and remove the 4 lines of code involved in doing this, then. See cli.py, line 160.
