When sites no longer allow you to speak out against political figures, companies, or conflicts then its time to leave. They are no longer moderating a subreddit. They are moderation information as a whole. They get to pick n choose what you’re allowed to rally around and rally against. Sites like lemmy are the next step to a free and fair internet.
Corporate has stolen our internet and our money. Its time to take it back. Federated and open source is the way we do it. Dont let the money tell us what we are allowed to talk about.
When private equity and billionairs have enough money to buy up entire social platforms, newspapers, and news stations, and political races… its no longer about community consensus or discussion. Its just pure corporate propaganda.
It’s so invasive too… Hearing kids self censor for advertisers, like “unalive” or “pew pew” is deeply disturbing
Our language is being artificially pushed towards Corpo-speak
People doing anything for the algorithm these days.
