Please let's not introduce elitism into Lemmy. I just got here and stumbled upon this post. The social network you use does not make you superior. As much as I agree with anti-racist censorship, there is no need to speak as if Lemmy users are superior beings. It was annoying when Redditors did it back in the day and it will continue to be now.
Exactly this.
As an analogy, I personally think the Linux desktop is better than Windows but I don't think desktop Linux users are inherently better than Windows users.
Sure, desktop Linux users are probably more tech savvy on average but they are probably also more likely to be less socially capable imo. (like me)
"I use Arch by the way"
(I kid, I kid... I use garuda)
Praise the Arch wiki though
Oh for sure. And pacman / the AUR. It's the reason I stated with an arch-based os even though I got a little tired of managing all the minutiae myself (I did used to use arch)
I do actually run arch btw :)
I actually use gentoo and I love y’all
Pleb. I use NixOS.
(Arch ~~btw~~ actually)
+1 for NixOS
I mean more as "if you can't look past skin tone and gender, you can't probably read a sign up sheet."
Racists are idiots. The ones who learned better aren't idiots because they applied new knowledge.
Racists just regurgitate what they were told since birth, without questioning anything and doubling down.
Is Lemmy better? Remains to be seen. But if they refuse to join because we won't tolerate slurs, that's a bonus.
Quite. Remember narwhaling bacon? Never again.
s/stupid/lazy
Big agree.
