What I never understood is why don’t the free speech absolutionists embrace lemmy?
The fediverse should be the epitome of self determination, individualism and saying whatever you want to say without some higher power telling you that you can’t…
Hence why I don’t think conservatives today are truly right wing, they don’t really do the shit they claim they are all about.
Or the right wing way is just to say one thing and do another thing. Honestly to me as a non-American, it’s pretty weird that the right wingers have latched onto this ‘free speech’ thing and that everyone just goes along with it because to me, things like free speech and freedom of expression always seemed like liberal or left wing ideals.
These guys talk about free speech, then burn a pile of schoolbooks that spread the ‘librul’ agenda and call for anyone that isn’t white and Christian to be removed from their sight. The only small part of free speech that they’re interested in is being able to call groups of people subhuman and they don’t just want that sort of free speech, they want freedom from consequences too and act like getting punched in the mouth for saying the wrong thing in the wrong place isn’t a thing in real life either. And more than that, based on the extreme pearl clutching when the ‘tOlERanT lEFt’ ever comes down from their high horses, they want that free speech for themselves and themselves only.
Basically they’re liars, bad faith trolls and people that actually believe that their bigotry means that they stand for ‘freedom’. They also ‘care about the kids’ but want to marry and fuck them and send them to the mines. So isn’t it obvious by now that everything is opposite day with these people?
Because they don’t want the freedom to say what they want, they want to force everyone to listen. Lemmy is terrible for that as we’ll defederate them real fast. I forget who they were but I chose my instance over willingness to defederate from a bigot instance and if I have to I’ll change instances over it
Right so saying I want a truly conservative voice has some merit and doesn’t mean your inviting the trolls that claim they are cons and instead are just contrary.
Some of us don’t live in bubbles and would’ve heard about it. We heard about Voat and Gab and Truth, we’d hear about it. Conservatives are very bad at keeping secrets.

They never did, except maybe in the 80s or someshit

I mean for all we know they might and just choose not to federate.
