Reddit is basically an American psyop machine. The censorship is alarmingly heavy. It bizarre and I’m surprised more people aren’t talking about it because it’s seems so extreme. It’s like a government tool now.
I’ve gotten banned and comments removed because I mentioned a site the moderators didn’t like. So, censorship is alive and well on Lemmy. Also, never forget the time the Lemmy mods/admins threw a bitch fit over celebrating what Luigi had done.
Censorship is always going to exist to some extent, but Lemmy has the potential to balance it out because there is no central authority. So you could have censorship of different stuff on different servers, but if you take the network as a whole you would still get a diversity of information.
I remember everybody celebrating Luigi the whole time, I guess some mods and admins were wary of threats of violence being hosted on their servers but overall it’s impossible to criticize Luigi on this platform without getting heavily downvoted, and celebrating him is free upvotes.
So I feel like you’re being pretty overdramatic and also not really accurate with this comment.

He sucks. I much prefer Princess Peach and I’ll fight all of you.
