I am not a velociraptor
You need to treat them like a religious sect. When you include the “faith” in the list of reasons why they do shit, it becomes easy to understand.
They are religious fundamentalists and are to be treated like such. Same way people don’t need proof to believe in their god, magas don’t need it either to believe in trump.
No, that xkcd is relevant because that’s exactly what free speech means. Your government won’t arrest you for saying stuff, but for the same reason you are free to speak, we are free to act within law against you.
And there is no law forbiding people from boycotting or unhosting or simply not listening to what you say.
You are free to speak, we are free to listen.
So you are a racist. Got it.

You are not going to find “free speech” instances federated with everyone, because what you are looking for is an instance allowing bigotry and racism, things that most of lemmy don’t like.
I’ve read about this. Yes, it’s truly notable how correlated both are.
One explanation I read that makes sense is that autistic people are generally less concerned about social definitions. Since we already are “weird” to the allistic society, we tend to consider things like gender in a different way:
“If society doesn’t have a way to explain how my mind works, how can it define my gender correctly? Maybe, its gender definition doesn’t apply to me”
So you start thinking that, indeed, maybe the society that can’t define your mind if not as “wrong”, can’t define your gender either. And turns out that you feel comfortable in something that, similar to how they explain your brain, is “weird” for them too.
Block third party scripts and third party frames.
Works wonders every time.
Oh well, I’ll keep “borrowing” my ebooks from other librarieZ.
