RE: Fist, Flag, Fire

I'm pretty sure I keep pointing out that hive is social media and it's not the biggest step to banning that on top of all the ones you don't like because as far as everyone else is concerned it's all the same :)

Sort:  

There is a difference though, it isn't centralized. It can be banned of course, but the platform itself is not designed with an agenda in mind. It becomes like a hydra potentially too, since an infinite number of mirror interfaces can be fired up - which makes it quite an interesting experiment!

As happy as I am that decentralised things can happily worm around censorship I was more coming from a principle of things side :) I'm not particularly fond of Facebook or most "right wing" (or even "left wing" these days) things but I am more against anything that bans/deplatforms them because if you're fine with that you have to be fine with the same things happening to whatever you happen to support otherwise it's kind of hypocritical/unfair/double standards ya know?
