Having Fedi folks agreeing with 4chan is not on my bingo card this year, or ever.
I would normally be sympathetic to their stand except earlier this year when this first started, they called on Trump to use all available political leverages to prevent this and protect free speech. Calling on Trump to protect free speech is just absolutely ridiculous.
Good riddance
I might not like what you have to say, but I’ll defend to death, your right to say it kinda shit
Within reason. Libel, incitement to violence, hate speech, etc, should be illegal for obvious reasons
There is an obvious reason why countries like Germany make a strong stance against any “trolling” nazi joke/imagery/salute.
But America’s First Amendment seems to not understand that reason (or only understand when it is weaponized against communism, black people, trans rights and all the “woke culture” stuff)

And look how that’s working for them: clamping down on pro-Palestinian protests as antisemitism, raids & arrests over calling a politician pimmel.
