The Internet is not safe, just got wade through the shit to make it to something good them make a path toward it by getting rid of the noise.
I don't expect it to be safe, and I do expect to fight against authoritarian propaganda when I see it.
All the drama and hateful trolls are extremely similar to the growing pains of reddit 15 years ago. The rational healthy users outnumber the hateful crazies, and that trend will continue as the userbase grows.
I hope..
I hope so too but I'm not optimistic. I was on Reddit before most people and it didn't have anywhere this level of authoritarian propaganda.
