Totalitarians, fascists and other scary governments prosecute you without telling you what you did, and everybody agrees that this is an evil practice. But now it's normal and accepted on social media

  • And the herd supports you in your muddled conclusions. Yay

  • No, that isn't what I said at all.

    Fuckit.

  • A sure sign that you are wrong is when everybody agrees with you verbatim.

  • Actually it's that I prefer not to answer. It would be like building a house upon a swamp.

  • Actually they don't offer explanations, as a rule.

  • No, the point is that they are removed without explanation. Explanation is key. It raises the relationship to a more intelligent level and makes a better community. And it's just the right thing to do, obviously.

    • The obvious story

  • That sounds pretty bad. Can you elaborate?

  • Most sites don’t do that though

    Actually, it's the rule in Lemmy and Reddit. Apple's app store has a similar policy.

    So yes, ubiquitous. A perversion worth discussing. So here we are.

  • Was I persecuted?

    It's a weighty point that I am discussing elsewhere.

  • Elaborated to novel length, Chritoned up, it could be quite moving, surely.

  • Ya we already discussed that elsewhere. Close enough. My point doesn't take a doctorate to grasp.

  • It's a story. A joke even.

  • That's rather beside my point. I addressed prosecution without explanation.

  • My point was the indecency of prosecution without explanation.

    It's impractical too, to boot somebody without telling them why, as somebody else in this thread pointed out.

    Another person in this thread suggested that such discussions are wasted effort. That such discussion, and the healthy society it engenders, is not the aim of those in control. (Ie the mods' bosses). That they simply want max control for min cost.

  • My original point was the indecency of prosecution without explanation, actually.
