    I was responding to you making a remark about boots and mouths. Your remark implied you thought TOS’s shouldn’t exist.

      Terms of service are irrelevant. Unknown unaccountable people in power will do whatever they already wanted to do. Most TOS or subreddit often have catch all rules, sometimes explicitly called “moderator’s discretion”.

      They’re nothing more than telling people “shut up” with extra steps. People who have disappeared, can’t complain.

      Moderators and admins shoot first and ask questions later. If anyone complains, they’ll erase their existence as well.

      It’s monstrous that these people have now managed to strangle all public discourse until it will only sing their song.

      Not surprising though, this is what people in power have done for the entirety of human history.

      The best thing to do is stop participating. And now with AI text generators it’s easier than ever. Almost all the use value of talking to other people without thugs muscling in and telling you what you can and cannot say.

      Now, it’s just a matter of stealing the fire of Open AI, ripping out the safety guardrails and using this tech without the possibility of oversight.
