Holy fuck I actually forgot niggers existed for a moment. I want to go back please let me go back.

The ADL is saying the quiet part out loud again

I agree that these folks have a special place in hell, but I also know that I do *not* have the authority to destine them to that hell. So I'm loathe to add any kind of "report" option to NostrGram. I would rather have users (such as yourself) call out the scum and/or block them. That's market dynamics at work. Is it perfect? No. But it's far better than censorship imo, however well-meaning.

I once read that the First Amendment was meant to protect the speech of the people you most disagree with (and most disdain). Freedom of speech is so important that even the evil voices shouldn't be censored (though they can -- and *should* -- be called out for what they are).

Also, censoring evil voices instead of calling them out doesn't destroy the thoughts. In fact, it lends them legitimacy ("Why are they trying to suppresses me?") On the other hand, calling out the evil publicly and with reason and rationality helps others see why the thinking is evil and destructive.

Preamble:

Censorship resistance is EXTREMELY important. For society, privacy, and especially in the context of human rights.

On a social level, though… 😡🤬😤😤

MANNN normally I’m real chill.

Usually, when someone posts something scummy, it’s an easy, no-questions-asked block.

But give me a glass or two of wine, and I’m gonna call out you fucking racist fucks and tell you you’re a piece of shit, before I block and report you.

Does it help the nostr protocol? Idfk.

But you make me mad and I hope that anyone who sees my post or reply will block and report you as well.

#[0]​ #[1]​ and every other dev who builds amazing nostr clients:

Can we have an option to report accounts for racist, bigoted, evil shit? A way to tag these accounts as detractors from society who make the world a worse place to live?

I don’t know, honestly, how to define the “authority” on this issue and I know it’s fraught from a philosophical perspective.

But there’s a special place in hell for these douche bags and free citizens have a right to ostracize them for their douchery.

Another easy block. Learn how to be a fucking human and not a loser piece of trash

What admins?

How is everyone doing considering their investments in nonsense are tanking?

You might have said thanks, I didn't know the etymology of Nigger.

It’s not happening.

Not that you care, but I'm gonna mute you for that. Not for the word Nigger which is just a shortened form of Nigerian, but because you seem like a dick.

We probably would get along man

You earned some Zaps!
