There’s a certain special irony in folks on the internet telling one another “Shut up! You’re not allowed to criticize free speech!” in a thread defending free speech. It only gets worse when you have people throwing shit fits over being federated, because it means you might get banned from another sub.
This all seems to boil down to “I don’t like other communities that hurt my feelings”. A thousand little Elon Musks, all screaming and crying because they can’t shut everyone else up and turn the local instance into a room full of yes-men.
What good has giving free speech to conservatives done anyone?
