If everyone hates censorship so much, why do those “censorship-free” alternative social media sites always fail?

Now, say you’re an ordinary person. You don’t like child porn. You’re not a Nazi. You don’t want to shoot up a school or blow up the White House.

The #1 problem people who make and consume child pornography have is connecting the producers with the buyers. Any “censorship-free” network quickly gets overrun with child porn. Classic example: 8kun.

So.

When have you been in an accident where the other person involved blatantly lied to the police about what transpired?

Who is the #1 user of completely free digital communications networks that let you say absolutely anything? Who most wants that?

I hate censorship. That is, I think the government has no place controlling what people say, read, express, or create, except insofar as is necessary to prevent things like terroristic threats, dissemination of classified information, fraud, false advertising, and so on.

Why do “censorship-free” social media networks always fail? Well, let’s see. Sit down and think. Think really, really hard.

Islam is definitely a very anti-LGBTQ religion, so why don't liberals ever stage pro-LGBTQ demonstrations at mosques or at the consulates/embassies of Muslim countries?

Are you going to stay on a social media site that’s all photos of babies being raped, Nazis posting graphic descriptions of finishing what Hitler started, and plans for school shootings?

Who is the #2 user of completely free digital communications networks that let you say absolutely anything? Who else wants that?

Child pornographers.

In bed, not in music, which is better, a drummer or a bass player?

You have the right to say what you want. You do not have the right to use other people’s stuff for free.

If i let you use my computer network for free, I have the right to tell you you can’t do certain things with it, and I have the right to kick you off. Why? Because it’s my property, not yours.

If I let you borrow my bike for free, I have the right to tell you you can’t do certain things with it, and I have the right to take it back. Why? Because it’s my property, not yours.

What is the worst name in Tolkien’s legendarium (meaning and look)?

Because you’re confusing two different things.

That has nothing to do with social media.

Nazis.

Why are so many people anti-Trump? People didn't like Obama either, but he was the president, so people didn't do this. What makes Trump different?

We don’t have to guess. We know.

The #3 user? Terrorists. 8kun was used to plan 3 different school shootings in a 6-month period.

“Censorship-free” social media sites quickly become Nazi bars where people exchange child porn. Normal human beings don’t hang out in Nazi bars with pedophiles.

Has a conversation with someone who holds opposing political views ever caused you to change your own beliefs?
