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

Child pornographers.

Who is the #2 user of completely free digital communications networks that let you say absolutely anything? Who else wants that?

If I let you borrow my bike for free, I have the right to tell you you can’t do certain things with it, and I have the right to take it back. Why? Because it’s my property, not yours.

Because you’re confusing two different things.

Nazis.
