That sounds like one of those internet-only words from people who are socially crippled and live exclusively on the internet and not enough time outside meeting atrangers to socialize
That sounds like a bad faith answer to begin with.
But it's a term used for at least half a century. In the context of Lemmy, you'll likely be seen as a tankie of you:
Don't worry, i banned him. Later he replied to me arguing about the "no anti science" point lmao
Clearly he's just a troll.
It's a real term dating back to 1956, and it's a bannable offense by instance rules.
The instance's rules are:
It sounds like essentially "Do not post anything that expresses a different opinion." and the "No anti-science topics" sounds like "Do not post documentation that proves our belief is false or wrong."
Just don't bootlick regimes, is it that hard?
And no anti science doesn't mean spiritual stuff and such, it means doing shit like denying vaccines or being a QAnon nut job. There's even a Catholic comm on the instance.
You're complicating this for nobody but yourself.
Wasn't much internet in 1956, but yeah
I hadn't heard it before I joined Lemmy either.
Well now you know
