Staying on topic is different than "don't talk about it so they don't shut us down"
I agree but who's going to shut a lemmy instance down?
Exactly. This public forum is insulated from such threats. That one is not.
From what threats?
Are you misunderstandings about basic rights in the room with us now?
Oh shit. They're in the room and all over this post!
The threat of censorship in public spaces?
Remind us all what you think freedom of speech is.
Don't be shy. Did you learn anything today?
I believe freedom of speech is the ability to say what I wish about whomever in public spaces.
Good for you.
That's not what it means.
