| the freeze peaches crowd I'm baffled with upcoming generations' comfort with government and corporations regulating speech. Probably the last thing I would have expected myself to part company on. edit: that Konrad von Marburg guy seems like a real dick.
Government has always regulated speech. Corporations have always (will always) been able to regulate speech on their platforms. Your first amendment right to say what you want is predicated on public safety, slander and libel laws and no one has ever had the right to do what they want on someone else's platform.
I feel so bad for that site. I joined at the same time as hubski back when it was called whoaverse, and it seemed like a cool hipster Reddit alternative. Went back again last week and it's filled with (((conspiracies))) and outrageously racist and sexist things. Places that pride themselves exclusively on "free speech" seem to devolve into this sort of nonsense by pushing out the people who don't want to bother putting up with it.
