Here's the truth. They want a safe space. If you question the admins they will ban you. You must be militantly polite or your gone
They explicitly state that they're making a safe space in their TOS thing, no?
Safe space = dissent disallowed.
Yes? That's explicitly the purpose. I get it's shitty but it's pretty stupid to go to a place where they outright tell you they're going to censor you and then get mad that they do it
Yeah so I don't think we're disagreeing here then. I made the claim that they're very censor-heavy and toxic and you seem to confirm that yourself. My argument was never about specifically going over there.
@Sexypink @sbv so basically they're reddit users.
The Great Fediverse Redditour of 2023 is already picking up to be far more interesting than the Poa.st and Bae.st hacks.
@Owl @Sexypink @sbv they got hacked? why would anyone care?
You let dogs in, the fleas follow. That's why.
@Owl @Sexypink @sbv they let white girls use their server?
What does "militantly polite" mean?
Do you have any examples of this?
Bro look at their description you can pick it up just from that. They straight up say things like "if you say bad things about feminism you're automatically sexist" like what?
Except... that's not what they say anywhere. In fact they wrote three nuanced essays that explain in detail their philosophy, and lay out that you CAN be critical of something (i.e. feminism) in a nice way that acknowledges your humanity and the humanity of others, and that if Feminists come in and flame you over it, THOSE are the people who will be getting warnings and bans. They want a mature community that fosters mutual understanding when disagreements arise. So when someone says "feminism bad" like they have a 26 character limit that doesn't exist, they see it not as disagreement but as disrespect.
Show me where they are accepting of criticism to feminism, links please, because I can source my argument. Nothing in that post encourages criticism of feminism regardless of the type of criticism. It's funny because they specifically defend modern feminism, which is something many people can find criticism of.
Yeah, for many many reasons I doubt that. If anything, the admins will allow those feminists to flame you, likely giving them a pass to violate TOS, before banning you simply for posting an article.
This still sounds like you are just guessing. Can you actually provide examples of this happening? With the moderation log being public we should be able to easily see who got banned for what.
No examples needed, we know how these people act thus this will be the case. That's assuming that someone who is even critical of feminism can get past their ideological purity tests to even get in the site.
Also, Beehaw does not seem to have public modlogs. Perhaps it's just because I am not signed in (due to not having an account) but through browsing several communities I failed to find any modlog link. Even if they do have modlogs and I am just not seeing them, do you honestly think a bunch of people who share the same ideology are going to care if mod powers are abused against someone whom they disagree with?
https://beehaw.org/modlog
Took me like 10 seconds to find it, it's at the same place as for every other instance.
I very much disagree with "no examples needed", if you can't provide any then you're just talking out of your ass.
No examples needed, we can already observe how these people act and thus have no reason to think they'd act any differently here. Not to mention the name even alludes to a hivemind.
Big words for someone from exploding heads.
That's how it is on most internet forums tbh
