On November 4, 2020, I wrote an article that I sent off to get published. The rag I sent it to never published it for whatever reason.
Ill publish it here for the first time for you to read. Too bad it was never published back in November, a lot of what I wrote became relevant very quickly in the weeks and months following the 2020 General Election.
Full text:
On November 3, 2020, I resigned officially as the administrator of 8kun and have relinquished all related duties and tasks. Much knowledge was learned and skills honed from spending long hours contributing as a volunteer to the project. By April 2020, I had already made up my mind to step down, but was busy fighting a hidden war against deplatforming and wanted to at least see the project through to the day of the general election. By summer, the thick and gooey atmosphere of cancel culture had started to manifest into an almost physically tangible entity. I stood by and watched with a sordid curiousity as a digital macabre horror unfolded in front of me with people and groups succombing to cancel culture's unfathomable power and influence as if mice approaching the cheese-laden mouse trap of deplatforming, of shadowbanning, of omission. As Americans, the first ammendment of our Bill of Rights does not allow Congress to abridge our freedom of speech or prohibit our free expression in their law making, but most people are unaware that the "freedom of speech" is not required to be upheld by most service providers to their customers or user bases. Demanding the "freedom of speech" as a community member utilizing such a web service is something that might feel right based on intuition, but in the best of cases is often not the well-intentioned meaning of the web service, and in the worst of cases can easily be used to mislead or even subvert the end user by providing a false sense of freedom.
End users approaching the slippery slope of online content moderation must proceed using caution especially when dealing with any website or online service which touts itself as a "freedom first" or a "first ammendment" service. Content moderators of all services have their own biases which will always reflect directly onto the actions they perform as a content moderator. For content moderators, the first generality of moderating a "free speech" web service is the inherent "my speech is free, and yours isn't" mantra of which they all chant in unison regardless of their forward-facing assurances or intentions. The only way to have truly free online speech is to not allow content moderators to edit or remove anything except content which is absolutely and/or justifiably illegal within whichever jurisdiction(s) the service is bound or limited to.
Imagine one day you decide to create an online haven for free speech and market it rightly so. You invite your friends and family, and everyone enjoys intellectual conversation together in relative peace and tranquility. All is fine until one day some spam and off-topic noise begin to trickle in from a small group of newly-arrived outsiders who have setup camp in your once-peaceful online free speech community. You, as the content moderator, quickly learn the appeal and power of the "Delete" and "Edit" buttons which sit comfortably next to each block of user-submitted text. Initially taking a cautious approach, you delete text with which you disagree and alter other text slightly to further whichever narrative is brewing in your mind. Eventually blinded with power, you begin to cut large swaths of users with just the one tiny motion of your finger clicking the mouse. You feel invincible as the denizens of your community beg for mercy from - you - the content moderator of whom they have placed their blind and absolute trust in to fairly govern free speech. Bound by no constitutional law, bound by no checks and balances, bound by no governance of any kind, you ramp up your censorship until you are personally censoring the President of the United States himself.
You truly are invincible.
