I was actually asked to leave. My comments and opinions have been deleted, hidden, shadowbanned and obscured elsewhere.

Indeed, it's hard to find a place on American social media where dissenting opinions can be argued. There's either an administrative agreement to shut the ideas down, or places (such as HN) don't like the idea of having opinions on their site for whatever reason (harmful to the community) so they shut it down.

I'm certainly not getting thrown in jail. But you won't hear any dissenting opinions.

By the FBI?

Do you think some government agency actually complained to the owner of Y-Combinator threatening them with reprisals unless they evict you?

For what it's worth I've been upvoting you for giving me great perspective. It's not often I get to hear about China outside the American media lense, and so I tend to think of it as a real-life IngSoc state. And we both agree America won't get better by saying "china has it way worse guys"
