Yeah, kinda.. no one said that. But hey, haters gotta hate

Sure, Id say it is more about representative "democracy" where we vore on who have power versus actually participating in the decisions. Like, do we wanna vote over which representant who are most charismatic, or do we wanna discuss the decisions as a society and decide what decisions to implement?

Id say the vegan person talking about how hard it is to make proper and healthy vegan food for cats understand cats better than a person who want to require consent forms from cats

But ye, what do I know. Im not a cat, nor am I a vegan

I agree

Right.. Im not even from the US. But sure, the labels versus the listening to each others viewpoints arguments 😊

Right.. where do you draw the line? You are straw-maning a lot here, as the person sensored wasnt an anti vaxer, religious fundamentalist, opponent of medicine, racist or even promoting denying cats meat without careful consideration

But ye, you',d probably sensor me too, as Im against racism. Im pro choice. Im against capitalism. Im post colonialist. Im pro trans rights. I'm an intersectional feminost.I think every person no matter skin colour, gender, identity or background should have access to free public health care. Hell, I don't even want people who got rich parents to get access to superior health care as we as a society should give everyone proper health care

So keep on straw manning, as you probably want to sensor me too

I would not recommend being on a media moderated by the principle of what makes a person popular, of the users should have a say, it should be over the rules and how to interpret them, not over which person er as individuals prefer

Yeah, I was as taken by surprise as you. I guess thats one of the reasons I keep using Lemmy after ditching reddit

Even if you hold that opinion, vegans should be allowed to disagree with us and argue why we are wrong

This is where you and I disagree

This is an endorsement of freedom of speech even if your ideology disagrees

Vegans have their rights to opinions just as you and me. This is not about t vegans vs us, but about how to handle disagreements We never learn if we just sensor everyone we disagree with
