    Potentially a fair point but completely spoiled by swearing and vitriol. I’m seeing a lot more of this on Lemmy these days and it’s a big and unnecessary disappointment.

      A solarPUNK performing speech control?

      I said the word fuck. Not bigotry, not insults.

      The vitriol is due to their confident ignorance in the face of facts. They were corrected by the admin of the UK server as to there not being a UK green party and responded with an insulting imperialist stance that they all fly under the Union Jack anyway. Throughout this comment thread they responded with nonsense or holier than thou stances. Even in response to my comment they frame it as a debate and order me to stop when there is no debate to be had.

      Your comment is a disappointment to your server’s ideology.

        It’s not speech control; you’re free to say what you want.

        And I’m saying that I don’t like seeing nastiness. It’s unpleasant and sets a bad example, pushing the culture of the platform as a whole in a more toxic direction. If another commenter has done that to you then call them out for it or ignore it, don’t add to it.
