In the US, if you don't want to agree with someone, you don't attack their points, you attack them personally. That way you don't have to argue against the points and can distract the focus of the conversation altogether.

In this thread: People so upset about using the word cunt they are willing to ignore the actions of some celebrity contributing to the culture of excess that is harmful to our world, while at the same time making herself look like an uneducated child by tossing threats that have no bite. She's now Mini-Elon to me.

Well they only need the content their users are subscribed to, not all content on the fediverse.

Lemmy servers aren't meant to be "big". I left lemmy.world for a smaller instance. If the admins of Lemmy.World want to just keep growing and thus increasing their costs, that is their choice. It doesn't mean all the users need to cough up money. THAT is capitalist propaganda. If the person who runs an instance can't afford to run it, then don't run it. You can escape from the system that is stacked against you, the system that demands you pay for every little experience you have, every little resource you use. You do that by giving and sharing with each other and quit acting like a vulture looking for scraps.

In general society, biological females can and do identify as women. You cannot just say "biological women don't exist" when you are just arguing a difference in accepted meaning between "woman" and "female".

The term two x chromosomes is not transphobic in any way. It is a community for cis-women. There are communities for trans-people as well. To try and declare that cis-women talking together about the struggles they face is hate speech only speaks to your own hate.

It's no different than if someone wanted to shut down a support for trans-women community by calling it hate-speech.

A trans-woman is a woman whose gender identity is not based on their biological gender. A cis-woman is a woman whose gender identity matches their biological gender...or their two x chromosomes.

If you find hate in that, then you should consider all communities that support any specific gender, cis and trans, to be hate speech since they are inherently exclusionary on their stated focus.

But that's absurd. Support for one group is not hating all others.

So if the community is abandoned, then do to it as any other abandoned community is managed. But it should not in any way be removed as hate.

Tolerance, OP. Everyone needs to have it.

I wonder if this is abandoned. I clicked on the "what kind of gardener are you" survey and it's closed. I look for a place to contact them and let them know and I click on the link to their slack and it too is no longer valid. Anyone know the status of this?

In what way would Google profit from restricting 3rd party launchers? I can see why Twitter and Reddit want to charge access for 3rd party apps. Profit. Lots of profit. I don't see where Google would have anything to gain from restricting a very significant customization option in Android.

Just joined today and I feel like I've found my tribe.
