Even if what you're saying is true, you're now relying on someone else (or a group of people) to censor sites you wouldn't like and also not be susceptible to those things when creating this blocklist. You're ignoring the risks associated with false positives. You can't outsource your own critical thinking.

Labeling the opposition as a deranged cult that must be censored doesn't exactly sound anti-fascist to me. Again, not talking about hate groups here or anyone that advocates for violence.

Name a major media outlet that hasn't been suspected to be influenced by Russia.

You talk about it like all scientists could ever agree to something and that it would be possible to poll every single one and properly weight their individual scientific relevance.

They're totally forgetting that people need to live where other people don't. Farming. Solar fields. Forestry. Mining. Wind farms.

Moved to Solid Explorer after ES got enshittified. No complaints here but will move to something FOSS when it gets 90% as good.

Without sharing too many personal details for privacy reasons, I likely have slightly less higher education than @squirrel_bear@sopuli.xyz. Based on the info provided alone we aren't far off, but it might be valuable to also look at non-academic experience, what field, or how we compare to others in our field or region. I'm not comfortable sharing these details, so I'm fine with conceding that I have slightly less higher education.

Edit: I'll also add that I don't support namecalling.

Edit2: I want to carify that the topic is poorly educated, and in my opinion the belief that you know more about other people's self interest than they do can come from a place of being poorly educated about those people.
