i expect you to remove comments that justify human right abuses.
Why?
I have enough faith in Lemmy readers to be able to read a comment that justifies human rights abuses and manage to avoid thinking to themselves, “You know what, he’s got a point. It does make perfect sense to beat someone, interrupt their sleeps, deny them water for over 24 hours.” And, if there is someone out there who’s stupid enough to just believe and absorb anything they read in any random Lemmy comment, then I think having a variety of viewpoints good and bad, and also seeing some counterpoints, and over time coming to the realization that they shouldn’t just believe everything, and instead develop some tools for critical interpretation of what they read (and a viewpoint that’s been exposed to a lot of different things including some very bad ones), I think that’s probably the best way to educate that person out of it.
