Shunned. Not banned.

This is the difference between centralization and decentralization.

Do you have any idea how disheartening it was to start out on this platform and having all your posts downvoted because you called out a pedo? lol I even told aggroed who wont shut the fuck up about disney pedos and he didn't care at all.

I have been serially flagged by a ninjamine whale, so I do empathize.

The fact is the community will respond organically, and does not need top down bans to shun malignant actors. Bans of any kind for any reason are just the tip. Getting shafted always follows.

There was a child porn person back in the days, but the one thing the community could control was the image hosting.

The posts, of course, sit as empty husks on the chain.

I direct you to my most recent post as evidence such control is both unnecessary, and incapable of preventing such criminal speech.

The point is that they are not displayed by convenient frontends.

That would be a PR mess difficult to clean up.

As long as PR has precedence over sovereignty that will remain true.
