This is a great moment for African-Americans. Good job muskman.

I doubt it, EU just passed further censorship laws that will force social media companies to censor "unlawful" things or face penalties. The authoritarian Democrats in USA are probably going to attempt to do the same to reduce any possible increase in freedom of speech with new laws, but in USA it can actually be blocked by the constitution. In EU no such blocking mechanism exists, they are free to build a copy of USSR here.

It's on social media however where the main discourse is happening in the west. Twitter is a shit company that makes no money and was bleeding users, but it's used as a powerful to determine what the people in the west think of today and most importantly what they should think about it. It's a powerful political tool, and that's where its value comes from.
Imageboards are places where a minority of mostly outcasts gather, they used to consist mostly of people with higher than average iq, today not so much so. The smaller the imageboard the less relevant it is and they don't care about going after those, it's not relevant for political power - but the big imageboards will surely face consequences and regulation, the way this snowball of a censorship and reduction of human rights is pushed by the elite does not go in the direction in favour of free speech, but the opposite. Today they do this, tomorrow it will be even more restriced with new laws, this has been the trend since 9/11.
