I'm getting an error when trying to access the PC master race community on lemmy.world "couldnt_find_community". I can't even read my own comments on there. Strange, considering as far as I know we haven't defederated from .world. Anybody know how I can fix this or should I message the admins?

Perfect time to rename the community, why didn't that happen?

Like, seriously.

I wondered that when I saw whitepeopletwitter and animetitties in my feed. You can name communities anything you want here! You don't need to use subreddit names that were created in protest of other subreddits. Just name them Tweets and World News.

... animetitties is world news? :o

Please don't start with that again. PC master race is a perfectly fine name and I'm glad they didn't change it. I'll just have to make another account.

Look, Holocaust jokes as a one-off, whatever. Holocaust jokes as a running gag? Bad look.

I see your point, but context matters. The title is saying: "PCs are a superior kind to consoles (and macs)". Saying that a certain type of technology is superior to another is absolutely okay, even though the same can't be said for people. Banning certain phrases in spite of the way they're used will do more harm than good to us in the long run. Additionally, people who constantly get so worked up about the usage of these phrases and words are the same ones who grant them the enormous power they hold over us.
