Seems "The control" has gained too much power.
People in time will look back and think on the days when they were in control and all the ills they saw in the world could be hidden in the dark places of the world cut off from them... sadly they learned to late that night always comes eventually and the darkness will reclaim everything.

Left leaning swine, right leaning swine, both are fat and ready from slaughter from I see of politics these days. Sure the right tends to at least be more amusing but both are relics of a age gone by who haven't adapted to the modern world.
I wonder at times if that is all this stems from. The fear of what happens when ideas are open to debate and things held as conventional truths are challenged. I can see a so many lies that I don't think we are really ready as a society to face.
The concept of equality between different people, old lies that can't be true scientifically but are seen as sacred cows that can not be touched. I always wonder if its the fear of people being able to freely and openly question everything they believe that is one of the great spurs to this age of trying to muzzle one another, Its a romantic thought but I have a sinking suspicion it is more out of pretty desires to be seen as virtuous or simply not be challenged.
Normies. Eternal September marked the start of the death of the "Wild West" internet, and the advent of the social media trio was the final nail in the coffin.

And there is no "oppression".
That's where your claims go completely off the rails.
You're free to be as racist and mean-spirited and shitty as you want to be. It's just that everyone else is free to respond to your conduct, by making their own choices about you.
You are literally arguing against freedom of association and freedom of thought/expression.
Comparing communists to Nazis. Cool. Back in the basket with you, rofl.
The right sure loves their Nazi hate speech being protected.
In before "Communist governments have killed more people than Nazis" or some jazz.
I'd explain at length why that statement is absurd, but I don't see the point tying to explain things to the right anymore.

I can't even parse what you're trying to say, here.
People are free to respond to the conduct of other groups, and to make their own choices. It's just that everyone else is also able to respond in kind, to them; that's where the bitching comes in from these people.
Hate crimes aren't relevant to this at all, because they are crimes; speech that perpetrates a hate crime is, by definition, not protected speech, to begin with.
It is what you make of it, we always end up at the golden middle and for better or worse, it's all relative to perspective and optics.
If you knew the candle was fire then the meal was cooked a long time ago.

I'd say the Internet has improved a lot since 20+ years ago.
I suppose some think it would have been good if such a thing like the Arab Spring could have been prevented.
