    Yep, this is pretty much what I was expecting to hear. You know you can block channels/accounts you don’t like, no? I don’t believe in censorship of legal speech. As long as no violence is being threatened, as long as drugs aren’t being sold and as long as children are not being harmed, it falls under the first amendment. If I don’t like what someone says, I just block them because that’s what the internet was always about: free expression, even of ideals we don’t like or agree with.

      Well, the first amendment is mainly only an American amendment isn’t it? The world is a large place, and we seem to see things differently some times. I agree that as a user, I can block whatever I don’t want to see, but that said, linking my viewers to a platform where they risk being exposed to extremists, rubs off on me too.

        Sure, but Odysee is an American platform. And ultimately, the only reason your viewers would blame you for others on a platform is because we’ve infantalized the internet over the past decade or so. Used to be that netizens knew that trolls and bullies exist online and wouldn’t blame individual platforms for it.

          The feeling when you type out a lengthy reply and then delete it, because you know it’s not going to be a conversation worth having…

          Have a good day my friend

            I respect your choice to do that (kinda sick of arguments in general) but honestly, that’s part of the problem. Seems not too many people are willing to have civil discussions these days, it’s all so polarized. Have a good one.
