Ledditors griefing over internet “censorship” and muh freeze peach principles that were apparently violated when effective, direct measures were used to combat fascism.

I don’t think we should ever celebrate people being deplatformed…If the content is illegal pursue legal means to punish the posters…But let’s say they win, and they get the domain blocked everywhere. They’ll just launch a new domain, just like all the pirate streaming sites do.

Are you implying you shouldn’t try to do anything because the fascists will (deterministically) win? Hence why the people trying to shut them down went straight to the ISPs because they know they can win the ISPs over on moral grounds?

[…] you have to decide if the internet is a human right or not. If it is, it must be for everyone, or it is for no one. As soon as we make exceptions to basic rights, those rights get eroded for everyone. Because people in power will bend the exceptions to political expediency.

Fascists don’t deserve basic rights.

    In what sense is torturing a person the same thing as platforming harassment on a website? >.>

    It really seems like you’re abstracting things to the extreme in order to use polemic language and avoid talking about the situation.
