If everyone hates censorship so much, why do those “censorship-free” alternative social media sites always fail?

Now, say you’re an ordinary person. You don’t like child porn. You’re not a Nazi. You don’t want to shoot up a school or blow up the White House.

“Censorship-free” social media sites quickly become Nazi bars where people exchange child porn. Normal human beings don’t hang out in Nazi bars with pedophiles.

Are you going to stay on a social media site that’s all photos of babies being raped, Nazis posting graphic descriptions of finishing what Hitler started, and plans for school shootings?

Why do “censorship-free” social media networks always fail? Well, let’s see. Sit down and think. Think really, really hard.

We don’t have to guess. We know.

You have the right to say what you want. You do not have the right to use other people’s stuff for free.

Why do I have the impression that almost all questions about advertising the flat Earth theory come from people who don't believe in a flat Earth themselves and are just provoking?

Because you’re confusing two different things.

If i let you use my computer network for free, I have the right to tell you you can’t do certain things with it, and I have the right to kick you off. Why? Because it’s my property, not yours.

That has nothing to do with social media.

What was your best sex experience that still makes you horny?

If I let you borrow my bike for free, I have the right to tell you you can’t do certain things with it, and I have the right to take it back. Why? Because it’s my property, not yours.

Who is the #2 user of completely free digital communications networks that let you say absolutely anything? Who else wants that?

Who is the #1 user of completely free digital communications networks that let you say absolutely anything? Who most wants that?

To a flat Earther, what's wrong with the idea that gravity is simply a force inherent to space which operates only in one dimension? Why do they go further and try to deny gravity rather than just saying it's different than physicists claim?

Child pornographers.

So.

The #1 problem people who make and consume child pornography have is connecting the producers with the buyers. Any “censorship-free” network quickly gets overrun with child porn. Classic example: 8kun.

Does the potential of making Star Wars R-rated movies depend on whether Star Wars have stories that is too dark for PG 13 in Disney?

I hate censorship. That is, I think the government has no place controlling what people say, read, express, or create, except insofar as is necessary to prevent things like terroristic threats, dissemination of classified information, fraud, false advertising, and so on.

Nazis.

The #3 user? Terrorists. 8kun was used to plan 3 different school shootings in a 6-month period.
