You can't even speak frankly here. I came to Lemmy because I was tired of being censored by Reddit, but it seems like this place is just as restrictive on speech as Reddit was.

People, if we are going to talk about systemic change for a better world, violence has to be a tool in the toolbox.

Talk about violence on a social media platform is a legal liability. Who should take that risk on? Corporations? Random private citizens who happen to run an instance of lemmy?

If you want to talk about violence so badly, you will have to either find a platform that will take that risk on, or take the risk onto yourself.

People advocating these things are never willing to put their money where their mouth is and create their own instance. Anyone can create their own instance, it just never seems to be them.

Meanwhile this person seems to be perfectly content with feds bashing down my door because of stuff they say, just not their door.
