  There’s something deeply worrying about the fact that especially here on Lemmy people are so acutely aware of the audience they’re speaking to that we need to preface our messages with “I’m really on your side on this issue BUT…” because we know how easy it is to say the wrong thing and then be mobbed for it.

  One shouldn’t have to worry about any of that. Especially on anonymous internet forum. If someone comes at you for posting a twitter link then that’s their issue, not yours.

    By number of users, Lemmy is the worst forum for mobbing I’ve ever come across. You’d get similar mobbing on Reddit but there were 500x the number of users.

      Also that the people who don’t care about that kind of thing wouldn’t have bothered moving from Reddit in the first place, or be bothered enough to interact with the post.

      Oh shit. Are we the Australia of the Internet?

      Or is this Plymouth Rock…

    I mean, I despise Twitter myself and wish I didn’t drive traffic to their website, but this clip is just too good not to share.

      I get name resolution issue for twitter domain. I’d look into it, but I actually think this is an improvment.

    These words must be prefixed by long winded legal conditions to ever be used in any conversation on any topic ever:

    Woman.

    Trans.

    Gay.

    These words are HARAM, and can not be used unless you are one or more of them.

    Fucking social calvinism.
