“In the context of censorship in the West, there was a prevailing illusion that the West embodied greater freedom of speech and press, portraying itself as a society with minimal censorship. Yet, I believe that censorship persists wherever there is power.”
Indeed
Censorship, in fact, arises from the vulnerability of power
Which then suggests that that kind of ‘power’ is without any trust in the moral fiber of society. And if moral fiber indeed is lacking, that i.m.o. would be the place to start building.
western censorship is ‘more concealed’
The topic mentioned in the article is not what i’m talking about, but indeed; i know a few other topics for which i’ve been shadowbanned/censored/banned on various platforms. Sadly… including this one. A dialogue trying to learn eachothers reasons is not happening a lot anywhere.
(edit)I’m from NL and WOO-reqeuest(like FOIA) have shown that govt had API access, to e.g. fb, twitter, used for censoring whoever they see fit.
Here are some people speaking out about what they had happen:
Cops are not allowed to comment on it:
Cellphone was taken:
When you freak out for your life, you don’t press record:

Hi,
i see for Jerboa some works has been done recently on ‘controversial posts sorting’ https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/pull/1106
and also for lemmyNet it seems work has been done recently on ‘controversial posts sorting’ https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/3205
i’d like to do as you said, but i’m not sure what the current status and agreements are
Hi. In the releasenotes it talks about sort type “controversial”. In my jerboa 0.46 i don’t see that option appear for e.g. the jerboa community overview page. Do I need to setup something?
i also feel it’s a heavy topic. there’s much more which they addressed regarding the viral mechanisms though. i see your sigh, also, i see the heaviness in this man’s plea 1:17:20 - 1:18:11
