What are they gonna do? Start fining the owners of the instances……
Decentralised doesn’t mean “no one in charge” - it means lots of people in charge of lots of parts. The fediverse would be the easiest social media network to bend to the governments will because it’s not billion dollar companies running it, and just the threat of fines or a lawsuit will make any instance owner shit their pants.
Not if the instance isn't subject to their jurisdiction.
FreedomAdvocate? Yeah, username checks out...
SHIT I need that, just looked through post history and he's got a lot of 'my body my choice' answers to vaccines too.
Well, one more blocked knucklehead
lol you think I care what a bunch of people championing censorship of dissenting views think?
Nah, in fact I sleep better at night knowing those people are angry just knowing that I exist :)
Hilarious you calling anyone else fragile though haha. You’ve done nothing but show how you can’t stand people not agreeing with you, actively trying to tell others people proactively to block me. If that doesn’t scream fragile then I don’t know what does :)
Fragile people get upset and cry for censorship when they come up against people with different opinions. Strong people have no issue debating and conversing with people with differing opinions. You’re the former, I’m the latter.
By “a lot” you literally mean one when responding to someone trying to “gotcha” me yesterday hahaha.
Quick questions - do you think vaccines should be mandatory? What should the punishment be for not getting them? Which ones are mandatory?
What other things with your body does the government get control of? Should the government be able to mandate abortions if, say, you already have 1 child and they want to implement a 1 child only policy?
I'm sorry, what? I'm new to Lemmy and a m using summit app, is there a way for me to utilize this?
Alternatively, you can use an app like Voyager which has a getting feature.
It's easy knowing not to bother engaging with someone who has "Asshole" next to their name in red.
Thanks for letting me know this - I was reading about piefed and considering signing up to give it a go. Now that I know it’s an echo chamber ultra pro censorship thing I’ll avoid it like the plague it is :)
It's like that time they tried to ban torrent sites, sure a few will fall, however more or more will rise up.
