Welcome friend. We are losing the internet to communist technocrats.

Not even just communist, but authoritarian technocrats.

There's all shades of authoritarians pushing their censorship. If you want to see right-wing authoritarian censorship, go to thedonald.win and post something like "Zionists control this website" or a factual negative thing about Trump, and watch it disappear.

The left-backed censorship is just more obvious because they have control of more major websites, like reddit. But sites like thedonald.win and voat show that the right is doing the same thing if given the chance.

So I think it's really an authoritarian vs anti-authoritarian thing, more than a right vs left thing.

It's like this political cartoon: https://grrrgraphics.files.wordpress.com/2014/07/march_of_tyranny1.jpg

Absolutely, and 4chan and 8chan. The whole "God Emperor" thing, Q, etc. As for the communities, it's the same cult of personality just on the right; plus unmentionable topics such as how come Q never criticizes Israel or Trump's ridiculous bailouts.

That's why SaidIt should always be anti-extremes, my friend!

I don't think there's any censorship on 4chan or 8chan. At least in my experience I've seen the range of opinions even on /b and /pol which people constantly decry as FAR RIGHT NEO NAZIS and really it's diverse as any other site.

I wouldn't say any. Janitor logs have been leaked in the past and they're just as bad as any other internet moderators. The screenshots are pretty obscure but they do have their own agendas. Banning generals, weebshit, or people saying nigger outside of b

I guess I've only spent a bit of time on /b not really any of the other subs so I'm not super informed.
