The vast majority of people think they should have the right to control others lives. Don't think people should be allowed to kill others? Trying to control others lives. Don't think people should be allowed to get gender affirming care? Trying to control others people's lives.
As for censorship of dissenting opinions, that is a real problem here on Lemmy, many people do seem to think that it's one rule for them when they censor opinions they disagree with, but when others censor their opinions, it's another rule entirely. How about just no censorship, people?
There reason people on here scream and rail against Twitter/X is because everyone is free to tweet unapproved opinions and use blunt terms to address their misanthropy. Lemmy people promote acceptance and inclusion for all people, but death to every person who won't conform and won't submit. To prove me wrong, find a post on here from anybody saying that they can be good friends with someone who disagrees with their opinion. If they weren't paralyzed by fear of speaking outside in public in the real world with strangers of anyone who has a different view, they wouldn't try to create a fantasy world in cyberspace to hide away from anyone challenging their statements. Online censorship is for people who always lose arguments in the unfiltered real world.
