Comment on Reddit could soon punish users for upvoting violent content.

The government is way more worrying though.

Let me be absolutely clear.
The opinions and concerns about “censorship”, and just about everything else, from “Whatabout-NATO/'Murica?” apologists and fellators for the CCP, Xi Jingping, Mao, Vladimir Putin, the USSR, Stalin, the DPRK, Che Guevara, Castro, Islamo-totalitarians, drug cartels, and
<insertMurderousAuthoritarianTyrantsHere>are worth less than Marx and Engels’ flaming dickcheese.They can all pleasure themselves in their own puckered accelerationist bungholes with their Molotov-sippy-cups that they can barely lift out of their premium-outdoor-brand backpacks.
No matter who’s “side” they claim to be on, never trust anyone who says, “I/We are in charge, forever.” Especially, the angsty edgelords at lemmy.ml.

What they said is that the proletariat is in charge forever, not capitalists/bourgeois/‘the wealthiest’ anymore.
You can trust our capitalist-owned medias on whether they succeeded or not.
Thanks for the reply though, ++

Apparently, I wasn’t clear enough.
Personal liberty, freedom of thought/inquiry, and self-determination are assailed by many threats: the theocrats, nihilists, corporatists, fascists, and so-called “collectivists”. They all claim to be the true authoritative “voice of the people”, but let’s discuss the authoritarian “leftists”, A.K.A. “tankies” (i.e., apologists for Lenin, Stalin, Mao, the CCP, the DPRK, Fidel Castro, Che Guevara, Xi Jingping, etc.).
They are obvious threats to a free, egalitarian, and open society, are just as violently authoritarian as their religious, corporatist, and fascist competitors, and should be treated with the contempt, distrust, and ridicule they deserve. Beware of their cult(s). Understand what they really are; power over everything and everyone, forever, is what they seek. They want you either as a true believer (a willing pawn) or dead, just like all of the other supposedly benevolent dictators who promised utopias throughout history.
They claim to speak and fight for the proletariat, promising a new utopia, never before seen, once their revolution executes the last “class-traitor”. In practice, once they’re finished with “seizing the means of production”, they’ll never relinquish control and become the new ruling class.
They’ll assume the mantle of an enlightened elite post-revolutionary administration to guide the proletariat to their promised utopia of “each according to their ability, to each according to their need”. In practice, "the party leadership needs the most, because they’re obviously the most able” in reorganizing the economic and political structure of society. The utopia of the “dictatorship of the proletariat” will never exist, only the dictatorship of the “revolutionary party”. Repression and execution await those who question their claims and decisions. These supposed champions of labor are really harbingers of death - of the mind and the body politic.
They’re akin to the pigs in Orwell’s Animal Farm, the loudest voices in the revolution, usurpers of a righteous cause, but a bit “more equal” than everyone else after the farmer is done away with. Fortunately, the pigs, like the farmer, got their comeuppance in the end of the story. And like pigs, these self-styled champions of labor will squeal when they don’t get their way.

Direct democracy then
