The article and release are interesting unto themselves. However, as this is c/Futurism, let’s discuss what happens in the future. How do you folks think this ideological battleground plays out in 5, 50, or 500 years?

    Ah yes, the “think of the children!” argument, battle-cry of conservatives everywhere.

      Okay big guy, since you are whining that is such an easy target. Ironic you are calling anyone here a conservative since its fucking hilarious seeing the community of Lemmy leans heavily left. So are you saying revenge porn, snuff material, rape footage, etc should be on every platform that has the ability to host video or images because if you don’t allow it, once again in your braindead take its “Censorship”? I would hope you would say no since I’m hoping you are a sensible individual who understands that some moderation in materials that a host provides is something that needs to happen or we will be flooded with “illegal” material and spam. Spam blocking would also count as censorship but again hoping you are sensible to understand that its fine to censor some material. Like sure we may be able to agree on some things but you just need to understand your initial stance is way too broad, that is it almost irresponsible to suggest and I feel you are just pulling the trigger way too quickly on something and you didn’t fully understand the ramifications of what you are suggesting.
