@realcaseyrollins @vetharvester That's the fundamental problem with "hate speech". As a concept it's far too open to the bias of the interpreter. In a democratic society, it's very important to be able to say things which are unpopular.
The more I think about it, the more I don't get the point of #fediblock. This is a federated social media network. If you're so sensitive that you can't handle civil but contrary opinions, then what the hec are you doing on federated social media? Just make you own private server and invite only people you agree with. It will be incredibly dull, but safe.
"You need to ban this nazi RIGHT NOW. My proof he's a nazi is that he said we should have police."
"Um... what? I'll need, like, any proof. At all. I'm not taking actions on some random's say-so."
"LITERALLY A NAZI. WAY TO LET YOUR TRUE BIGOTRY SHOW. #FEDIBLOCK"
You need to get your Latuda filled, my dude.
Observation: depending on which #fediverse server you're, this statement may not actually be true despite appearing on the login page of pretty much every Mastodon instance. #fediblock
@Korsier @vetharvester I still wouldn't give hate speech powers to anyone. Not everyone is as fair and balanced as you are. Most definitions of hate speech are intolerant.
@Korsier @vetharvester The definition of what exactly is hateful changes with the wind. Best to allow as much speech as possible.
@realcaseyrollins @vetharvester Personally I'm against banning words because that ignores the context. Better to just restrict speech which incites hatred. That really pisses off the snowflakes though because they're actually big offenders in that regard with their "stale pale male" slogans and so on.
@bootersmchooties @Grandtheftautism @georgia @p @jojo Don't forget when he was on #LoganPaul's podcast #Impaulsive
@aktivismoEstasMiaLuo @realcaseyrollins @vetharvester That kind of thing should be in a config file or database that the sysadmin can easily add/remove words, not hardcoded.
@Dave @sexualizer @bahn @georgia @Grandtheftautism @p @jojo @Rude@kys.moe Ah okay cool thx
@realcaseyrollins @LemmyDev On the other hand, if you want a free speech server, you can join this one. I only block stuff which is spam, illegal or straight out harassment. Server's in Australia though so connection might be a bit slow for you.
@Korsier @LemmyDev Oh you mean #Fediverse!! Almost all of the instances I'm on support free speech! I was talking about the #Lemmy instances haha
