Yeah, but Rednote censorship is bad because ~communism~ whilst Twitter's censorship is fine because it's the 100% Capitalist Free Market situation of a billionaire buying (using, amongst others, money from a Petro State) a privatelly owned forum for exchange of ideas and then shutting down any ideas he doesn't like.

Well, that's how "biased free speech" works.

I mean you should do it but not out of spite, or to be hurtful, but to give people the freedom to choose.

And to do that, they need to know what their government was up to.

Yes imperialism is violent and hypocritical. Kinda 101. Strange to see so many apologists for this kind of censorship on Lemmy. Lib brainwashing plus state religion.
