But you can discover it for your instance, no?
Excellent writeup
I agree that a lot of politicized content is shit. Yesterday I checked reddit and an article was titled ‘ultra-rich reminded of pitchforks if they don’t share’ or some asinine bullshit. I would enjoy not having this relentless ragebait spam here.
I do however think, that I can just block them right? And I can read the German instances via my kbin account, so I don’t see why I should switch. I think you are right to caution but maybe a little over the top.
Funnily enough, boost for reddit is the last one holding out and closes after today. I was really confused by your title hahah
If the scientific community overwhelmingly and independently comes to the same conclusion over and over again, insisting on being able to discuss other solutions, especially not in the context of academic exploration (because it IS important for the scientific process to check opposing hypothesis and to peer review) but in the Context of telling a baseless opinion easily disputed, then no.
That’s like the people who insist on ‘discussing other explanazions’ for climate change.
And it is more than understandable that this insistence then is seen as the Opposite of good faith arguing and met with resistance. There is no point in giving a forum to harmful lies. That is not productive discourse
While I think you are right and there are surely factors worth investigating, I cannot shake the feeling that ‘money for ads’ is a really big one.
To the point: I cannot htelp but notice that the bigger services place emphasis on you presenting, ourself, while small decentralized ones place more import on anonimity. I think there’s a part in all or most people that wants to present themselves and be lauded among peers. This is to me why platforms with photo capability like fb and insta took off. Also reddit was trying to gravitate more and more towards this with following profiles and bla
I get why subs that consider themselves safe spaces for trans folk would ban you for that.
Transitions are Never done willy nilly. Several doctors and psychologists will be in contact with that person before. If they agree it is fine, as Healthcare professionals, then it must be that forcing the person to stay their birth gender will do more harm
While I agree with you, class Co sciousness and warfare requires unity. I cannot stand with someone, be our situations as similar as they might be, if their stance is ‘but not the brown/gay/whatever people’
All or none. I will not stand for discrimination. Not overt, not veiled as ‘discussion’, not ever.
What stuff of yours was censored?
That is the key question.
I had noticed a sharp decline in quality. It was a kind of frog in boiling water situation, where more and more content was from Twitter, tiktok, poor ragebait about us politics…
I remember I went to reddit because that is where content from other platforms had originated. That stopped at some point
I remember we have one in German, but it’s more about language…
you ask a bunch of questions ghat the answer are different colors, and when they are all used to saying colour’s, if you ask them what a cow gives, they’ll probably say white. Of course, this was in 2nd grade.
