Pure curiosity:
If you left reddit or another corporate platform under the banner of not being censored by their views or beliefs, what was that?
Wait. Before we open this can of worms, I’m not at all curious about an in-depth explanation of unpopular views or opinions that are generally extremist or that most reasonable people consider extreme. More of:
- I left reddit or some other because they censor…?
- The lemmy community is more for me because?
- I reasons my instance policies or moderators are better than the other platform is?
- The other platform restricted opinions or views regarding…?
If you feel like sharing, just summarize the general idea, please no indoctrination speeches.
Oh boy…
If you don’t see a difference between mocking people for their illness and mocking them for their anti-humanitarian views, I don’t know how to explain it to you.
Cancer patients don’t decide to have cancer. White supremacists decide to be pieces of shit. Not the same.
Also, cancer patients are not trying to eradicate human rights for everyone but themselves.
You’re missing the point. It’s the same thing.
Mocking either is the same.
Which one you side with is your own bias. If you can’t see how they’re the same, spend some time thing about it. Put yourself in both positions. Use other less extreme examples.
I get, we all dislike the hater in the scenario. We likely don’t find the outcome of the above post fair or just.
What should have happened instead?
Probably the original poster liking Hitler posts gets banned, the poster of those comments got banned before that. No need to call someone out and mock them, thus not putting yourself against the site conduct rules. Right?
Paradox of tolerance. No, they are not the same.
