Censorship is a real problem, but you don’t have to embrace it. That’s just making the problem worse.
Personal censorship has been around for a long time. People have always avoided saying things that others might view as weird or repulsive.
The true change is that everyday conversation is more monitored now than it ever has been before.
We have let insipidly authoritarian technology into our lives in an intimate way.
Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it’s something that’s widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Rules:
Politics is everywhere. Let’s make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others’ opinions.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
This shouldn’t need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
