For some pretty limited milquetoast posting on here I've had abuse and even a death threat. I think it's as bad as Twitter and it's overt actual nazis, but it's not exactly the kinder gentler place that people say it is

I gave my opinion on someone's opinion on transit. I don't really care who runs your city, other than it not being a sex pest.

People said he should get run over by a bus and have rocks chucked at him. I got a death threat for agreeing with him. Valid points I'm sure

Was somewhat surprised that the reaction to your fair and balanced piece was a bunch of people essentially wishing death upon you, but guess that's social media these days

It's not an interview, it's a report on a statement they've posted. They're musicians who aren't allowed to play music because of a campaign so yes they have been silenced. Would be saying exactly the same if it was Kneecap gigs
