"They're running right-wing echo chambers!"
The "right": Tries not to remove any content or ban anyone
The left: Ban happy, reports, blocks, bans all thoughts they don't like with extreme prejudice
You keep using that phrase. I do not think it means what you think it means.

@houseoftolstoy You're absolutely right. My statement was more about the hypocrisy of saying "right wing echo chamber" when said "echo chambers" are presently entirely open and free (in the case of youtube, actually heavily censored in favor of the left) while their spaces are specifically closed and censored, but it can all change in a heartbeat. We know gab isn't free. We know Gettr isn't free. I'm pretty sure truth social won't be free.
I'm not a young man. I remember that the right wasn't the friend of freedom when I was growing up. Nobody has a monopoly on authoritarianism, and just because you're supporting freedom now doesn't mean that won't change the moment you think you're dominant.
That's why it's so important to keep using your eyes and your brain and to make decisions about what's going on without being told what your decisions or opinions are. The moment your turn off your brain, you're just a tool for someone else.
