Are you high? Do you think governments are run by witches who can hex people? Of course the government can't stop you from physically saying something!

The same way they can't stop you from building a bomb, cooking meth, stabbing someone in an alley, or anything else that's illegal.

The way laws work is to prevent people from doing things by making them illegal, what are you talking about?

"Yes, what is anyone going to do to stop you? That’s why America has free speech at the very first right defined in the bill of rights"

"You can, you’ll just face legal consequences"

Am I taking crazy pills?

Then explain why i cant scream FIRE in a movie theater, or call a mall and tell them I'm going to bomb them, or walk up to someone on the street and say "give me all your money or i'll blow your brains out". After all its all just speech isn't it?

So in your world it is acceptable for me to say that you're an evil person for disagreeing with me and should be shot where you stand?

That's absolutely ridiculous, and actually a crime in a decent number of the countries. And if that's not what you're saying I think that you don't actually know what your free speech maximalism means, because people who believe those things and say those things exist and they want to hurt people.

People absolutely do not have a right to push ideologies that harm, dehumanize, or diminish other people.

I haven't deleted anything, but honestly I haven't felt any desire to go back either.

That is a strange place for that to be, but thank you for the tip.

I've found using the mobile app way easier than Jerboa. I feel like Jerboa may become something nice, but it just isn't there yet for me.

I'm still trying to get my head above water, but I've learned enough to start being able to browse and post. I still haven't found the instance I want to use as a home instance, and don't know how to browse instances other than the one i'm on. But these things come in time, and im willing to learn.

Same, I haven't opened Reddit except for accidently on Google images when trying to find images for a game I run.
