Having Fedi folks agreeing with 4chan is not on my bingo card this year, or ever.
Inb4 major Lemmy instances get banned
the UK is fucked
At least they are a little less fucked now lmao
4chan is full of assholes, but blocking websites is pretty fucked. what person wants their government doing that?
None of us do. Most of us have started using VPNs ever since this law came into effect.
I would normally be sympathetic to their stand except earlier this year when this first started, they called on Trump to use all available political leverages to prevent this and protect free speech. Calling on Trump to protect free speech is just absolutely ridiculous.
We’re allowed to call it retarded now at least
/s
UK is ultra lame for this.
The British have all the good luck.
I never thought I’d be siding with 4chan.
Just to let you know I was never a 4chan user.
That’s exactly what a 4chan user would say… *narrows eyes in suspicion*
I might not like what you have to say, but I’ll defend to death, your right to say it kinda shit
Within reason. Libel, incitement to violence, hate speech, etc, should be illegal for obvious reasons
There is an obvious reason why countries like Germany make a strong stance against any “trolling” nazi joke/imagery/salute.
But America’s First Amendment seems to not understand that reason (or only understand when it is weaponized against communism, black people, trans rights and all the “woke culture” stuff)

Like alot of things in the USA, laws are selectively enforced to protect the status quo.
“Youre anti fascist? Youre a terrorist!”
Everyone has a different definition, but yeah generally free speech in an ideal sense extends to just before you start causing what a reasonable person would concern harm to someone.
Fuck that. People spreading racial hate and public lies with the intention to mislead the public should be locked up.
Well the internet is written mostly by bots. Everything needs Id and spying. We may end up building a new internet so fuck the old internet
We’ll build a new internet with blackjack and hookers.
Just like it used to be.
You know what, forget the blackjack
And the hookers are just all obese sweaty neckbears roleplaying as hookers
