Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

They're already tracking you. We are all on a watch list. I'm sorry.

But my parents would know about this. They're strongly anti-communist.

Oh sorry, I glossed over this post, as your links didn't work, it was very late at night, and I was drunk.

But yes, I see now that you're a minor, and the US is planning on enforcing censorship on free thinking minors. This is bad. This is very bad. And I will join you in urging our American comrades to try to do something about this.

Well, you're already being tracked through many forms as the other user pointed out. But if your worry is your parents, on a cursory glance I see nothing that would require notifying your them for engaging with "harmful" content. It mostly places the burdens on the platforms to either ban that content or you, as notifying every single child on the internet seems like a huge hassle. I could be wrong though. (Please fix your links if you can)

Now if you want some advice, you can always get some free VPN like protonVPN to a foreign country and generally avoid attaching your real life identity to your "harmful" online activities. Tor is also pretty nice too, I guess. Nothing is really 100% "safe" and you're always at some risk, but this doesn't seem like the end of the world for your individual case.

The bill is still the usual 4-letter acronym rubbish the USA has been peddling to wreck the internet since it went mainstream. Somebody should revoke their internet license, "Reverse Great Firewall" style.
