And yes, I know people will say block keywords and communities, but people don’t understand some communities have rules and people must follow them.

      So if something bad happens in any country, from any government abusing it’s citizens, that is also not allowed? Because that’s not how it seems to work. It’s specifically US politics posts that get removed.

        Yeah, most of the time it is US politics getting removed, because 10,000 other NA users have already posted about the same thing lol.

      Evidently the sentiment isn’t having a wide enough reach, as people are crawling into their echo chambers to avoid not having to deal with the fallout of their apathy, handing elections over to the nasties.

      Not everyone was German/Italian/Japanese in the 1930s-40s either. Pretty sure those countries still affected others, though.

        And somehow reminding everyone on this echo chamber again even in non-political communities is going to reach those not here to see it? Just put it in the damn communities it belongs in problem solved, everyone here will see it but I can also go look at cool owls and shit for a second in peace, win win.

          “Just put everything in that box in the cellar where it belongs” is not how discourse works. If you start filtering out specific ideas then you create the exact kind of algorithm driven dystopia you see on TikTok, only you do it manually. It is a direct way to silence legitimate thoughts and opinions to appease some small subset of angsty teenagers who want everything to be fucking slop enema without any critical thought attached ever. It’s sad to see on here, this was supposed to be an alternative to that dumb shit on reddit, yet here people are trying to turn it into the same.

          I could just as easily say “go watch that shit on Discord if you don’t like it”, because that’s basically what your argument amounts to.
