So everyone needs to explicitly block cheese pizza for themselves just so a few perverts can share that stuff in the name of "free speech"?
No, everyone needs to explicitly "choose some list of moderators whose decisions you trust, and subscribe to their block lists"

#52I will never use any Facebook product again after they completely bricked my oculus devices with the forced sign in.
VR goggles? Dude. How about the part where they tried to consign your grandchildren to a dystopian technocratic panopticon? https://hackernoon.com/on-the-infestation-of-small-souled-bu...

#54> "Twitter’s decline..." Is Twitter in decline? According to what measure? I use Twitter as a read-only way to follow a handful of interesting people in tech, science, journalism etc. All of them, regardless of their political leaning, are still posting the same as ever. If anything I see more activity than before.

#57> Individual servers would let different groups set their own community standards, though likely with a “floor” of rules set by Meta, in a fashion similar to how Reddit’s individual communities work. This is not praise. Reddit bans people for expressing widely held beliefs. Subreddit mods are required to enforce the site-wide rules regardless of the subreddit's own preferences. As another commenter put it [1], the pr…
Just because over 10 million Americans believe that Tom Hanks violates, kills, and eats children - a widely held belief - does not mean that a private company can't tell those people to go suck a bug. A private company does moderation and it's the end of the world. Ron DeSantis bans books and he is just "anti-woke". The actual government.

#59Now it's full of TikTok videos with the same text-to-speech narration.
I don't trust Meta to not somehow ruin whatever they happen to come up with.

So, you have no problem, I assume, with the "woke" governors banning or revising classic children's books to remove anything offensive? Right? You know, to prevent "government employees and licensed child educators from providing certain books to children, in the context of government mandated education." I'll wait.
Indoctrination of children is just natural a natural consequence of everyone having their biases. Parents are the ones who should choose, because that is how we have diversity. Home schooling gives parents the most choice, private school a step down, but public school is where the parent matters the least and we end up in perpetual holy wars like this.
