In the recent thread about Twitter's bias in enforcing its policies we had a short discussion about Mastodon . Mastodon is an open source de-centralized social media network. Anyone can create a Mastodon server. And you can communicate with users on that server or on other Mastodon servers just like you can email anyone on any email server.

There is already a libertarian Mastodon server. https://liberdon.com I have already created an account. It's @neitherplantation. The reason for the name? While I long ago did the #walkaway from the democratic plantation, I don't find the republican plantation acceptable either.

This is the answer to corporate censorship. Go your own way.

Interesting. I created an account though I probably won't use it much.

the big 'corporation' .

Why do you think it's a "nanny state" platform? You certainly have the tools to ban users on your server if you like (and that regularly happens on RonPaulForums.com), but you can also have a "nobody gets banned ever" policy if you like. And unlike RPF, you can communicate with users on a different server. Eduardo would still have a home somewhere on a Mastodon server.

You didn't understand the video narration.

You can make your own server and allow or disallow whatever content you want. You can communicate with other instances, or not. They can choose to communicate with you, or not. The possibilities are endless.

Are you saying that you've created a platform (Libertarian) that is not 'NANNY STATE' ?
If so, sounds good.

Inside joke. He's a guy that got banned multiple times (for what reason I have no idea) and always came back under a different name to get eventually found out and banned again.

I didn't create it. I joined a libertarian themed Mastodon server that has already been created. I just signed up today. There are all sorts of servers that have been set up.

Oh, I thought you didn't see the last half of my post that i edited in right after since it directly contradicted what you said, and you didn't quote it.

Here is the FAQ for liberdon.

It does sound a bit more "nanny state" than what you are looking for.

Might be like Gab Dissenters. I was going on the title and thought there might
be a new non Nanny State Libertarian forum,
Hell , I'd be happy with any political forum that was non nanny state.

My problem is that tos are never objectively applied, NEVER, when we have Nanny State censorship.
As I mentioned ; a spam filter and no 'threats' platform inv , is a Free Speech zone.
