care to elaborate on that?

Oh he won’t.

As title i'm wondering if there's a list of lemmy instances that support free speech

free speech for who? about what? according to who?

what are you looking to say that you feel you can't?

Wdym "free speech for who" and "about what"? Ain't really "free speech" if it's limited in who it applies to. By that standard, North Korea has free speech, as long as you're a member of a well-connected family speaking in support of the government.

Oh is that why we see so many North Koreans expressing their opinions on the internet?

What kinds of things do you want to speech about?

What do you mean by free speech? You want to share classified government information? Wanna tell people how to buy drugs online? Share links to torrents and other piracy websites? Or do you just want to call people slurs and tell trans people to kill themselves?

By free speech i mean free speech

Which definition of "free speech" are you using? Do you want "free speech" as defined by US law, which heavily regulates what you can say? Or are you using the Canadian legal definition? How about Article 19 of the UDHR?

Does your definition of "free speech" include hate speech? How about disinformation? Slander? Planning to murder the President of the USA or the King of the Commonwealth Realms? Organising genocide? Child pornography?

Since we can't go against the law i guess according to the country the server are hosted at

So you'd be fine with a free speech instance hosted in, say, Saskatchewan, Canada; where their laws prohibit online hate speech targeted towards groups such as trans people and ethnic/religious minorities?

I'm not familiar with canadian laws but i don't think swear words are illegal there. We could take the US as a better example

This dude actually said what he wanted in another thread. He wants an instance that tolerates "basic slurs." It's hilarious and sad how obvious it is that these "free speech" people are just racist. https://lemmy.kde.social/comment/497886

I don't remember saying that. What i asked for is a list of instances that support free speech. Most popular instances like lemmy.ml and lemmy.world don't seem to support it as they censor even basic swear words /slurs
