Do you trust the election process in your country?

Last year we wrote a research paper with the help of some PhD's and deradicalization experts on how censorship amplifies radicalization and violence. This thesis is one of the main reasons that Minds lets its community speak freely (within the law) and encourages dialogue rather than censorship.
You can read it here if interested.

There are an infinite amount of words or phrases that can be substituted to convey the same message if there is enough consensus amongst the public.
Banning words is a losing battle. https://www.minds.com/newsfeed/1395808288565628940

A lot of people need to learn how much better life is if you can just laugh at yourself instead of get offended.
Laughing at yourself also disarms any malicious attempt to offend most of the time.

Some thoughts on various moderation systems:
Authoritarian - central authority makes all of the decisions with no input from the community. good (mostly) for adherence to terms, bad for fairness and transparency. bad for scaling.
Peer-to-peer - users make all of the decisions with no input from any authority. good for user control, but not great for scaling as very few would be willing to spend the time to moderate effectively. unhelpful for new user experience.
Democratic - community makes all of the decisions by arriving at a consensus through voting. good for fairness and transparency, unproven for scaling or adherence to terms.

It is far more effective to fight bad ideas with information than isolation.

Building decentralized methods of verifying the authenticity of accounts is one of the biggest needs of social media today.
Twitter hasn't figured it out. Instagram hasn't figured it out.
We are going to figure it out. https://www.minds.com/newsfeed/1371940095329832972

Town Hall next Thursday!
This is a great opportunity for anyone in the community to speak directly with the Minds team. We want to hear what you all have to say and hope everyone can make it.
Lots to talk about with the Elon news, Minds product updates, and some of the awesome stuff we have planned for the next quarter.
Hope to see you all there :) https://www.minds.com/newsfeed/1371202904169385998
