Did you reply to the wrong comment? Where did I defend censorship?

They are confusing censorship with manipulation. The algorithm is working.

To be fair, the comment mentioned censorship but not manipulation.

I’m a bit confused where you made out it was about manipulation when it was really about the rage algorithms.

But obviously the commenter misread the comment completely and thought OP was advocating for censorship when in reality it was his description of Internet utopia.
