What happened to HN? I have now heard HN silencing cetain posts multiple times. Is this enshittification?

Fascinating, I am not surprised at all.

Even beyond AI, some of the implicit messaging has got to strike a nerve with that kind of crowd.

I don't think this is satire either, more like a playful rant (as opposed to a formal critique).

"If something is silenced, then that must mean it is right" is a pretty bad argument. There are genuinely good reasons to ban something. Being unnecessarily aggressive can be one.

I'm libertarian, I'm against this. I'm also against blockchain scams.

My ideas on digital currencies and something like artificial intelligence are simply an extension of the usual ancap\panarchy ideas. It's actually a very good test for any libertarian you meet - they'll usually agree that a "meta-society" consisting of voluntary exterritorial jurisdictions (which can be anything from crack-smoking ancap tribes to solarpunk communes), with some overarching security system to protect those jurisdictions from being ignored by somebody well-armed, is good, then you just have to ask why the systems they like for currencies and this are clearly manifestations of a different ideology.

What. When did we start censoring shit on lemmy.
