- Shit, why not here? Can even make a whole goddamn community for him on one of the instances.
  
  Because we can follow mastodon from Lemmy?
- Just make a website. 🤯

Meh. It’s zuck’s private platform and Zuck hasn’t been running around yelling “absolute free speech!” like some of the other billionaire megalomaniacs have.
- He is a major shareholder of a publicly traded company. Opportunistic censorship makes the company look bad because it reveals abuse of power, which reflects poorly on the company as a whole.
  
  This is Facebook. It casts no reflection.
- if he wants a private platform he shouldn’t open it to the public
  
  Yeah, if my restaurant is open to the public, I can't deny entry to the guy who doxxes me every day. Makes sense to me! We know the results owner is an asshole, so we'll just allow it. We on lemmy never cared about law and order in the first place, we know who's good and who's bad, and based on that we rule on everything.
  
  TIL opening up to the public means relinquishing ownership.
- counterpoint: its our biosphere. fuck that piece of shit

Is a "college kid" a kid?

- If you subscribe to science and cognitive development an adult is ~25. If you're into child soldiery as a morality standard, your results may vary.
