So no. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] Holytimes@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago You wouldn't have an account for long if you did anyways. Billibilli makes the censorship on YouTube look like fucking childs play. Foreign politics are fine, world history is fine.
