Why does Facebook need to moderate the populations talking points? The us government literally drops bombs on people's homes. Humanity is full of all kinds of bullshit. I wish people would stop trying to make everything online a fucking safe space.

It's not about making everything a safe space, it's making sure kids on social media don't get sent gory pictures, radical extremists aren't able to incite violence on a massive scale, shooters don't get to livestream their mass murders and school kids don't commit suicide due to cyber bullying. This issue isn't black or white and your edgy worldview doesn't improve the situation. Just so you know, even 4chan is heav…

Freedom of speech isn't an edgy world view.

I wish people would stop trying to make everything online a fucking safe space. Waheoo, I know you deliberately caught the coronavirus to spread it as part of your Jihad. I shared your address on my Facebook wall. I'm sure you…

You're welcome to do whatever you like, don't complain to me when you end up in jail.

I'm not claiming laws are bad, I'm claiming Facebook isn't the fucking police.

Why would I end up in jail? Freedom of speech.

My mentally ill brother-in-law and his militia may go to jail, but by then it will be way too late for you.

> So your venting is deleted for yourself, but preserved eternally for the people with power over you. I rather like it. I love the phrasing. It instantly made me imagine those words being spoken by Lord Demiurge [0] (as voiced by Jeff Johnson [1]). [0] https://overlordmaruyama.fandom.com/wiki/Demiurge [1] https://www.behindthevoiceactors.com/tv-shows/Overlord/Demiu... .

Thanks! I was going to say 'preserved forever for' but the double-'for' was awkward. Phrasing credit goes to fantasy author David Eddings, attitude to a C.S. Friedman character, Tarrant. Lord Demiurge has some interesting similarities! Searches show interesting Gnostic ideas about Demiurge being a lion-faced-serpent. How appropriate. I have trouble finding a sample of Jeff Johnson as Demiurge, though.

The specific clip I had in mind can be found in "Overlord" (English dub), season 3, episode 9, 20m25s - 20m50s ([0] and [1]).

Hey, creator of the site here, thank you so much for the tip! Unfortunately I'm quite new to full stack. ~1.5 months ago I didn't know a lick of HTML (let alone CSS, JS, any backend framework, AWS, etc), and I'm making lots of mistakes along the way. Currently trying to figure out how to improve my DB performance as Spring's default pagination seems to be quite slow and my site is getting hugged to death at the momen…

Hi, is there any way to contact you privately? I would like to use this idea on a project of mine.

Sure. Feel free to DM me on Reddit (u/VentScape). Eventually I'll set up some @ventscape.life emails to use but I haven't gone through the effort yet
