I wonder where folks like this came from, and at what point did people who associate themselves with hacker culture decide that censorship is great.

The OG hackers thought of censorship as network damage that needed to be routed around.

People who support censorship always think of themselves as smarter than the rest. Dunning-Krueger however would suggest something different.

I posted above that social media related issues are a problem, and then a bunch of posts accused me of wanting to make it illegal. I never suggested that and I actually don't support censorship, I just wish some people I know didn't spend so much of their time bummed out about social media.
