At various times, most social media platforms have received criticism for alleged failure to prevent distribution of copyright-infringing content. Few, however, have been threatened with widespread blocking more often than Telegram. In a row that seemed ready to boil over last year, Telegram was given an ultimatum by the Malaysian government; come to the negotiating table or face the consequences. A Malaysian minister now says that Telegram is ready to fight piracy.

Free speech is not about being fascist 🙄

Sure, but what you’re describing isn’t freedom of speech; freedom of speech is the prohibition against the government taking action for the contents of the opinions you express. It has nothing to do with what a non-government platform allows or disallows.

A platform that allows Nazis is a Nazi platform, plain and simple.

I realize you’re probably a dishonest pos, so this is for the benefit of whoever else reads it.

It’s also censorship if we are speaking of platforms.

Hopefully the package containing all the fucks I give doesn’t get lost in the mail.

Edit: There’s either a bunch of Nazis supporting this fucker or they’re using alt accounts.

He’s got a temp ban and I’ve banned a suspected alt account upvoting him from our instance. It’ll be a permanent ban if he comes back for more.
