If everyone hates censorship so much, why do those “censorship-free” alternative social media sites always fail?

Who is the #1 user of completely free digital communications networks that let you say absolutely anything? Who most wants that?

Because you’re confusing two different things.

How do you perform a lap dance for your boyfriend or husband?

Now, say you’re an ordinary person. You don’t like child porn. You’re not a Nazi. You don’t want to shoot up a school or blow up the White House.

Why are breasts attractive?

If i let you use my computer network for free, I have the right to tell you you can’t do certain things with it, and I have the right to kick you off. Why? Because it’s my property, not yours.

Why do “censorship-free” social media networks always fail? Well, let’s see. Sit down and think. Think really, really hard.

Are you going to stay on a social media site that’s all photos of babies being raped, Nazis posting graphic descriptions of finishing what Hitler started, and plans for school shootings?

You have the right to say what you want. You do not have the right to use other people’s stuff for free.
