I’m glad someone else sees it. I’m very unsettled by the widespread support for corporation-determined censorship on servers Microsoft doesn’t even pay for. Did we forget Jimmy Kimmel? Do you not know of the “Chat Reports” feature??

Tomorrow, to conform to the new regime, Microsoft starts to shut down private servers with mentions to LGBT and Antifa. If you don’t stand up for free speech when its idiots using slurs, there will be no one left to stand up for you tomorrow when its your speech under attack.

the ability for nazis to be nazis is not the same as queer people being persecuted for existing

No, but, we’re not in control of the standards here. This is how every censorship process goes. It’s “For the Children” or it’s about stopping Nazis, and then when the system’s established and normalized, they creep it towards oppression and suppression. How people are supporting this with everything else we see in 2025 is beyond me. Palestine Action. Kimmel. Kirk.
Reminder: The UK implemented Real ID-verification as a requirement to see porn. On Day 2, it was blocking the Russian-Ukraine war and Israeli genocide in Palestine – two topics I’d say UK leadership is on the wrong side of. Just last September, Microsoft figurehead Bill Gates was singing praises to Donald Trump and Gates owns stake in companies executing Trump’s deportations.
