I think that you are not allowed to speak freely on most platforms. And when i say speak freely i dont mean to have right to offend people, just to have right to normaly tell your opinion.
You're viewing a single thread.
Freedom of speech is often confused with a right to say what you want on any platform, but it's not the same. As long as you can host your own website, say whatever you want on it and have the website be accessible to other people, there is freedom of speech on the internet. That's not the case in all countries, but in many it is. But getting banned on Twitter for writing "cisgender" or getting your post removed on Lemmy doesn't really touch your free speech whatsoever.
Freedom of speech is not just the right to speak into a void; it includes the practical ability to reach people. Dominant communities are the modern public squares. If you’re banned from these, your ability to participate in discourse shrinks dramatically because that’s where the audience is.
When a handful of people enforce rules unevenly or with bias, they shape what ideas can spread.
Well imagine this. If you live in a city where you are not allowed to speak freely on city major centar and you are alloved to speak freely in your ovn home where there is non around. Is that realy a free speach city?
So im allowed to speak freely on myown website that noone knows even exist, but im not allowed to speak freely on twiter or so called x where eweryone are..
Free speach means that twiter shouldnt be allowed to delete any coment that isnt offending someone directly.
Or if they have a power to do so than we all shouldnt use twiter. We should use some more free platform like lemmy.. Or some other, fell free to sujest.
People aren't entitled to having their opinion heard by strangers
You dont have to hear me, you dont have to read my comments or posts. And that will not do all rhe people, just ones that find it interesting. So removing and deleting my post is harming those who would read it and learn something from it.
