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

We don’t have to guess. We know.

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?

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.

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.

Because you’re confusing two different things.

Why do you think Filipinos are conservatives?

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

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

Why do you write?

So.

Nazis.

Child pornographers.

Why is Fourth Wing so popular? What makes it stand out from other romantasy books? (No spoilers please)

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

“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.

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.

Why do Indian parents force their kids to do stuff?

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.

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

That has nothing to do with social media.
