Reply to comment by hattulanHuumeparoni in [D] Will there be a replacement for Machine Learning Twitter? by MrAcurite

>If you really think (one who presides over a discussion) is (a person who supervises conduct and morals), you can go to 4chan. Let me know how the experience is there.

Replaced the terms with the December 2022 Miriam Webster dictionary definition of the terms, to help elaborate on your argument. I think everyone can see the quality of your argument better if the terms are directly referenced from a dictionary definition.

But regardless, I'm not here to be your strawman, where you put other people's arguments in my mouth. If you require someone like that, I think your bathtub rubber ducky would be most appropriate.

Yeah pretty rich of you to complain about bad faith arguments. But since you don't mind appeals to authority, here's the wiktionary definition of cencorship

>The use of state or group power to control freedom of expression or press, such as passing laws to prevent media from being published or propagated.

How exactly does that apply to a federated protocol, where people are completely free to move to other instances, or even host them?

If you're using Wiktionary, instead of a reputable dictionary like Miriam Webster, Cambridge, or Oxford, that tells me all I need to know about the quality of your argument.

Also the constant strawman arguments, shifting topics each reply, and resorting to personal attacks in a professional subreddit. But those are things you're doing to yourself, I'm merely pointing out why I don't want to engage in discussion with you.

These are from Cambridge. They don't really apply to a federated social media either: nothing is prevented to be seen, people can just choose not to see it if they want.
