Well, that's fucking dumb.
But then again, why do people like Discord? It's bloated, not anonymous in anyway, and just has the worst interface I've ever witnessed of any chat or communication tool.

Jeeze, that's hilarious(ly) bad.
Even though the creator of postmill is super against free speech and is for heavy handed censorship herself, I'll give her props for not trying to hardcode or even make a filter a default option on postmill.
The feature exists and is literally called, "censorship" on postmill with the discription:
This tool lets you ban phrases of text from being posted. It can be used to prevent spam, or to suppress dissent.
Though I always thought it was tounge in cheek humor and not serious...

It's his fault for pandering to anarchists. Their stated goal is to burn everything down. Not sure why he would expect anarchists to embrace a politician.

Hmm. Coulter's Law seems to be in full effect. Lots of publications and no descriptions of the suspect beyond "young" and "male". All Black, right?

You'll see a dictator the UN of human rights violations since 2014 freely sharing his opinion. This is proof that Twitter has "rules for thee and not for me", banning people guilty of wrongthink while cheerfully allowing murderers to say whatever.
To be clear, it's great that Maduro has free speech (even though he won't allow his own citizens to have it). He is welcome here on this site, as far as I'm concerned. It's hypocritical that some people have free speech while people "guilty" of lesser thought crimes are banned.

As far as I know there's a stabbing everyday. Maybe more. You don't usually hear of this in normal news channels since it's too common to be news. There could be something like the weather channel, but for stabbings. But I guess nobody wants that, since the perpetrators are seldomly white.

Lemmy has a built-in "slurs" filter that blocks you from posting dozens of "slurs" (including words like twat). It is very free speech-unfriendly software.

I feel kind of bad for the guy. He seems universally disliked by those on the right and the left.
On the right, he is letting anarchist run rampant in his city and they're doing a ton of damage to property and genuinely being little terroristic assholes.
On the left, he isn't doing enough to bend the knee and give in to whatever their demands are for that particular day. I mean, they literally set fire to his apartment complex that he lives in and harass him anytime he's in public.
Guy is in a bad spot with his constituents, I'd say.

Whats with all the stabbings on the front page now? Can you even rehabilitate teens capable of something like this?

I saw the surveillance videos and it's pretty horrifying. The only thing I can compare it to is a pack of hyenas attacking a gazelle.

The only reason I chose Postmill over Lemmy was Lemmy doesn't function properly with javascript disabled.
It's certainly a better looking and better functioning site/software, but I didn't feel like forcing the use of javascript to interact with the site.

Literally create your own custom character, but with yourself. Just need some reversible clothes and a blindspot and boom, new person.

Telling everyone to stop being violent and go home in peace isn't acceptable?

If you were Putin, you probably wouldn't care about a few thousand boomers from another country talking in circles about how some messiah named Q is going to come through "any day now" and take out a bunch of pedophiles or whatever crazy shit they convinced themselves to believe in.
You'd probably be more worried about being able to choose the next guy who controls Belarus or something instead

That was disinformation warfare to fuck with the minds of congressmen and the public so a newer, stronger version of the PATRIOT Act would get passed: https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/116/s3190/text
