General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don't post to both !uk_politics@feddit.uk and !unitedkingdom@feddit.uk .
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

!ukpolitics@lemm.ee appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(

Uncensored social media has always devolved into shit. Every online MMO ever has experience with it. Chat moderation is important or you end up with spam and bots, and nazis everywhere.

How many un-federated free speech micro-blogging sites can the market support? I'm surprised Truth Social is still going now Twitter will let anyone pay these days. Are Parler and Gab even profitable?

Read uncensored as "we get to pick what we allow." And people will cheer when "libtards" are censored, like it's some victory.

They just need to admit they want a safe space and be done with it.
