Same shit as 2016, different venue. A naive implementation of free-speech values says that they should have a chance to talk, but bringing understanding to the mix reveals that they don't also value free speech, and their speech suppresses far more than it promotes.
Freedom to associate is part of freedom of expression. You are allowed to say and believe a lot of things. And everyone you try to say them to is allowed to say they would prefer you never interact with you ever again (blocking). Further, if you openly associate with people who express opinions that people find shitty, those peioke are allowed to say they don't ever want to interact with you or anyone you associate with ever again (defederation)

Does Lemmy have an "r/asablackman" sub yet? Because I'm getting that vibe.
If you're gonna make your username your political identity, I already don't want yo talk to you.
He literally called referred to himself as Blackman in one of his responses to me. No not "black man", but "Blackman". Maybe just a typo but his responses were hilariously sad and I wish I screenshotted it.
I don't know if @[email protected] is actually black but if he is... good lord.
I've noticed this person multiple times making similar posts on various sh.itjust.works internal communities and constantly getting downvoted into oblivion. They're a disgrace.
