NotYoMama+FollowSensitivity, Control, and the Monetized Internet What is happening online is not accidental. The internet now punishes disagreement while pretending to protect civility. This has nothing to do with platform rules and everything to do with informal enforcement through reporting, tone policing, and popularity-based judgment. Disagreement gets flagged. Context gets ignored. Accuracy becomes irrelevant. Platforms throttle voices based on behavior, not truth. Repeated reporting is enough. Near-unlimited account creation allows coordinated reporting and stalking, often dismissed as “bots,” even though real people are doing the work for free. This system does not ask who is right. It asks who is disruptive. The reason is money. Social media is monetized. Ads and engagement drive visibility. Debate creates friction. Ideas are inefficient. Consumption is predictable. Strong independent voices are treated as risk. Here is the personal reality: I am not here to compete for pennies or validation. I am not seeking approval from people who silence instead of reason. That alone makes me inconvenient. The loudest enforcers of online civility are not powerful. They are the most managed users in the system. This is not a free exchange of ideas. It is a commercial environment. #DigitalCensorship #FreeExpression #SocialMedia #PlatformPower50Share
