Interesting take.

What in tarnation!? 🤠

Ah, so you want a free speech instance. So if that is what lemmy.world is supposed to be, why do they ban folks that disagree with them? Why do they delete comments? What you are describing and what lemmy.world is are not matching up, my friend.

No worries! I think I need to focus on actual social interaction, rather than the facade social media portrays. I like talking to people and listening to their stories, ideas, and ideals. I have a habit of stress-testing those ideals, but generally out of a desire to strengthen them by acknowledging the pitfalls they contain. I'm a social chameleon that is as fascinated my human nature as I am annoyed by it. Thing is, online interaction strips so much nuance from conversation that it takes so much extra effort to say something. It's like talking to a brick wall sometimes.

What if I go nowhere? What if I just abandon this social media dopamine dispenser altogether? Then I won't have to listen to asshats from half way around the world try to explain why genocide is okay sometimes.

I ain't asking anyone to agree with me. They are the ones who banned someone for disagreeing with them.
