Nowhere is safe from some level of censorship. It's a matter of how far the censoring can go.

Even here, one could argue demonetization on layer 1 is a form of censorship. But, if you only want to post things, it probably doesn't matter. Unfortunately, demonetization also makes it harder for your content to be seen.

Since most people are here for rewards, it makes it harder for them to sacrifice monetary gains for "wrong think" and get downvoted. I guess that's why things here can be "censorship-resistant", but not "censorship-proof". There is no such thing as perfect platforms.

But yes, those pent up resentments could blow things up one day.

I suppose it's a tradeoff then. You're right, we don't really have anywhere to go that's totally censorship free. Except Mastodon I guess
