Thank you for your answer.

I'm confused, where is your evidence of me having a hate speech?

And why this aggressive and condescending tone?

Doesn't your answer prove my point? Did you read what I want to talk about?

Thanks for your input.

Aaah no, I just want to post, I'm not interested in technical stuff.

And absolutism is just one topic among many others. My goal is to question, to switch perspectives, to look into the eyes of reality, to challenge, to exchange opinions and so on and so forth without having the very irritating surprise to be blocked or banned.

But hey, maybe this is one of the flaws of the Fediverse concept: any instance admin can arbitrarily block any post of any user.

I guess I'm gonna roam around some more to find a true decentralized system with a good balance between censorship and uncontrolled illegal stuff.

Yep, I figured that out afterwards.

The issue is not the community, but the server on which it is hosted: if the server's manifesto states "no hatred, ..." then anything related to hatred, even guided constructively, may potentially be blocked.

That's the point: as Reddit blocked the post for commenting I wanted to be able to comment on it from another platform, i.e. Lemmy. So I created a post, referring to the Reddit post, including my comment and my whole post was deleted.

So, in which Lemmy community can I react constructively on any post made on any platform without being blocked?

I found this Reddit post and I wanted to comment on it: https://www.reddit.com/r/usa/comments/1jrx01z/as_a_nonamerican_watching_america_implode_i_cant/

My comment: Wherever country one is from, one can partly or mostly agree with the observations made. However, it needs extended perspective and accountability.

People are responsible for actions of their country only to a certain extend, after that, the accountability goes to the country government. I sympathize with all the people ashamed of and angry at their government, whichever it is.

Back to the US.

We are all responsible of what is happening, and we all empower the US government.

By "we" I mean everybody on this planet who:

  • eats and drinks at Mc Donald's, Subway, KFC, Starbucks etc.
  • works on a computer and smartphone (Microsoft, Apple, Google, Intel, NVidia, etc.)
  • consumes centralized numeric media (Netflix, Reddit, Youtube, Facebook, Spotify, etc.)
  • orders products online (Amazon, Uber, etc.)
  • has a pension fund invested in treasury bills
  • invests in global ETFs (Vanguard, Blackrock, Bank specific ETFs, etc.), treasury bills, crypto (USDT, USDC, USDe, FDUSD, etc.) or simply in US stocks
  • has a credit card (Visa, MasterCard, etc.)
  • buys and spends dollars
  • uses GPS
  • uses centralized Internet platforms (Google search, ChatGPT, etc.)
  • buys US army weapons
  • goes on vacation (Boeing, etc.)
  • and the list is not exhaustive

QED: we are all accountable.

If one wants to change the world, one has to responsibly and consequently change one's own habits.

 

Hi

It seems that free speech is only an illusion on Lemmy servers.

Where can I post any comment on any post (even blocked Reddit posts) without being blocked?

Even hatred needs to be analyzed to get to the root cause.

Thanks in advance for pointing me to open minded and constructive discussions servers.

Hum... Good idea, but poor UX.
