I really don’t know when censorship became this new awesome idea that people cheer for on the sidelines.
The person was spreading rhetoric downplaying the COVID-19 pandemic, in the US of all places. I hardly care if they’re censored for dangerous rhetoric like that, especially on a random forum online.
Random forums online used to be where people had conversations freely. Instead even FOSS projects are mimicking failed social networks that editorialize to block out all but a certain viewpoint. I probably agree with that guy. I DO think that this is all over-hyped and we’re stopping the world for something that has a mortality rate similar to a bad flu season. But of course conversations are stopped before they are started just so people can jerk themselves off and feel good for ‘saving somebody from misinformation’. Give me a break. If the Lemmy project has proved anything to me in this thread it’s that the Reddit ‘consensus’ model just promotes mediocre discussion where variants from the norm are blotted out.
