>Is it safe? The internet is where we could live, love, learn and communicate freely. To be ourselves, we need to be able to trust the systems that protect us.

If the system protects you then you can't be yourself, because invariably these systems that protect people also censor people. Nowadays we hear about it quite often how the people that advocated for hate speech rules online are getting screwed by those same rules.

>The internet is transformative because it is open: everyone can participate and innovate.

Except those we (you) disagree with.

>Who is welcome? It’s not just about how many people have access to the internet, but whether that access is safe and meaningful for all of us.

If you find that it's not welcome, then why not add a place that is welcome for people like yourself?

The most amazing and important thing and the internet is that it lets regular people share things with the world with little interference. Their opinions, thoughts, experiences etc.
