That's a weird way to frame a truly free speech environment. Yes, speech is more limited to left-leaning speech on most accepted parts of the internet. That doesn't make a board that allows both to be right-leaning. It means that most of the internet is left-leaning.

Ofc, im simplifying to left vs right here, but that's only in response to calling it a right leaning board.

Many people confuse "free speech is a good" with "free speech is the highest good".

> truly free speech environment

Sounds awful.

You should rest easy tonight, knowing that nobody has any plans to make you go there.

If only its toxic effects didn't spill over into the real world, corroding hard-won civilized society.

Right without 4chan “spilling over into the “”real”” world” we’d have a utopia with zero hate.

If your civilization can be toppled by some weeaboos on a Mongolian basket weaving forum, maybe it wasn't that great to begin with.

Truly free speech has a vibe of calling Vogelfrei truly freedom.

Are doxing, slander, defamation free speech?

[xboxnolifes]

Truly free, as in no limitation. I would include doxing, slander, and defamation to fall under "truly free speech", yes. That it not me advocating for these things, it is me calling limiting them what it is: limiting speech. We limit them because they can be very dangerous or destructive, not because they aren't speech.

At the risk of sounding like I wear a tin foil hat... that's what they want you to think!
