The problem is there are so few uncensored places now that if you do make one you overnight become the sweary nasi/pedo/sexads bar because everything else is closed to them.

Basically Reddit 2018.

funny you should say that. r/jailbait existed for a very long time under the watchful eye of its heckin' wholesome founders.

reddit has been purging even vagueposted satirical wrongthink like r/MillionDollarExtreme and r/frenworld since Americans voted wrong in 2016. the commissars at r/againsthatesubreddits sniff it out, "Anti-Evil Operations" purge. all default and large subs are now moderated by compliant activists. r/videos removed the "no politics" rule and became yet another echo chamber for wholesome folx with good politics. r/europe exists only to promote wholesome civic nationalism and quickly purges and locks submissions about inconvenient happenings. the model subs like r/worldnews, r/news, and r/politics were propaganda outlets even before the bad orange man happened.

so idk what nasi infestation happened in your reality's 2018, but I observed the opposite in mine.

It requires a strong-willed webmaster and a board culture that rejects such unfun people.

Thus they are censored.

Part of the problem here is there are people that think any kind of censorship or moderation is wrong. I will not make any universal statement about the correctness of their position, but I will make a personal statement about their position. "They are fucking crazy".

Now, every once is a while you need a bit of fucking crazy to shock you out of the position you're in and reassess what position you should hold.

And by blocking certain people, you demonstrate to authorities that you can block anyone you want, and you will be held in contempt if you don't block anyone they want. As opposed to having no technical blocking capability.

>As opposed to having no technical blocking capability.

I mean, this may have worked a decade or two ago, but if you built modern software this way the same government is going to toss your ass in jail.

"Oh no, I built a murder machine that I can't stop, I guess you can't prosecute me for that, it's out of my control".

You can only get away with that now if you're a billion dollar AI company. Otherwise the judge is going to halt your efforts and prosecute you for contempt and stupidity.

It's not for sure and you should consult a lawyer, but it's often the case that a court can't order you to do something you can't do.

Yet the law can. All the child protection laws we made years ago have made making unmoderated software very risky.

		Notice how they had to make that the law before it became the law. Before it was the law, you didn't have to unless a court ordered you to.

On the forum I'm on, chuds are required to include "trans lives matter" in their comments or they don't show up. It's like anti-censorship.
