"Its the same kind of freedom the copy machine or the home word processor gives."

Thanks for confirming my point, glad you agree.

You seem to be confused. No one on mastodon can stop you from speaking. They can just choose not to listen. Censorship would be stopping you from speaking. As long as you're not breaking any laws, no one is going to shut you down and prevent you from being on the network (eg, your hosting company shutting you down). All you stand to lose is a generous system administrator doing the work of staying online for you for free.

Is free speech in your mind something someone automatically has obligation to share? Thats forced, not free.

I'm not confused, your definition of censorship is just weird and impractical.

Yes, I can write what I want in my personal word editor but quite obviously that's not the topic at hand in a discussion on social networks.

Literally no one can keep you off the network. It cannot be any more plain than that.
