I came here because I don't want to be told what to think. I believe this is the most evil year the world has ever seen and I think the most important thing right now to the common man/woman is freedom of speech. don't like 4chans format so here I am.

Whats the driver behind non-political censorship?
I don't have any personal examples, but I see interesting conversations on various gaming subs that get thousands of upvotes and hundreds of comments before being randomly removed by moderators.
Just scrolling through /r/undelete I see a ton of front-page memes that moderators nuked. Do they not get that generic subs are going to attract generic posts?

It's about narrative control. You control the minds of the people, then you also control their actions by extension.
It's always about power and control with those at the top. That's why they're there in the first place, they've made their lives about acquiring power and control over others, and disregarded morality in the process because it only limits them

But what control are they really accomplishing by censoring something that has already done its rounds, already got upvoted by 10k and seen by exponentially more?

No, most of the things on thedonald are instantly keyword-removed by an automated system with in a second or two. And reddit does keyword removals now too. And voat will downvote you so it never makes the rounds in the first place.
