The admin of sh.itjust.works has been approached but as of yet has failed to reply to concerned Lemmy users. I’m glad Beehaw admins look out for us by cutting off instances that host communities like this.

Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

Freedom of speech is meant to protect you from government squashing dissidence.
Out here in private land everyone is free to associate or not associate with anyone they please. This is what 15-23 year old libertarian brains have yet to comprehend. If you want to be a nazi, that’s fine, but there are consequences. One of those consequences is civilized society is going to quarantine you and isn’t obligated to take any of your shit. You aren’t entitled to any one else’s platform to spew hate.
@Refune Legally, that is true. No one would argue that platforms have a legal obligation to host your content. But some would say that they have a moral obligation to host it. 'I may not agree with what you have to say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.'
@Jeze3D
Absolute nonsense. Nobody is obligated to be party to hate and bigotry. Those folks can have their own websites and try to promote it themselves independently of those who reject their trash philosophy. Platforming all thoughts and ideas isn't inherently valuable. Especially not after millennia of human thought and enlightenment.
