Comment on Upvotes and downvotes are public information on Lemmy
DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 3 weeks agoYou’re ignoring their concerns about harassment campaigns, which not only happen, but happen on Lemmy specifically due to public voting.
It’s half of the reason Hexbear keeps going through defederation and refrigeration cycles, for example.

A platform isn’t required to give you free speech. You can stand on a corner and talk. A platform like lemmy, doesn’t have to follow free speech. Being harassed on lemmy because you used speech and others are using speech, every has free speech.
Let’s put it another way, if you stood on the corner and said stupid shit and everyone walked by and said that is stupid, is that harassment or you being stupid?

This thing you’re experiencing right now is called cognitive dissonance. Good luck with it.

Thanks, I have terrible spelling and gramma and I have free speech. I feel like your trying to say that if someone says something shitty and you get harassed for the shitty statement, you don’t have free speech. That is incorrect on all levels. You were able to say it. If you get arrested for it, that is not free speech.
Downvote me all you want, I still have my voice.
Yadda yadda blah blah yackity smackity
