  • [meta] Please ban comics by bigoted artists

    Jump

  • Blocking it won’t stop everyone else from being exposed and the hate being normalised.

  • Jago is not “dark humour” it’s incel garbage that constantly attacks women and trans people.

  • [Meta] Posting comics from transphobic artists?

    Jump

  • No, I think the worst thing is treating it as a “free speech” place instead of moderating what is shared there.

    Which is fundamentally the approach being argued here.

  • And as an trans adult I would rather not be exposed to it at all.

    I don’t want a community that’s like 4Chan, I want some where that’s respectful and takes into consideration the wellbeing of its users without platforming hate artists.

  • The Lemmyright is insufferable, bringing up their complaints everywhere irrelevant.

    Jump

  • I run an instance filled with trans people and anarchists, I would risk a lot to protect them from the state.

  • To answer for Quokk.au. If I had to, I’d delete the instance and all data before ever handing anything over. They can take me to court if need be.

  • Quokk.au is an Australian owned instance, but we're not exclusive to Australians and promote an international vibe. Can we still enter, as there's not really an international 'national language' - unless we go with English being the lingua franca?

  • I love my snotty little window lickers.

    I don’t know if you’ve seen it or not, but I made !earlychildhoodeducation@quokk.au and you’re the first other early years person I’ve seen on here! :3

  • Almost half of all Americans fear a ‘total economic collapse’ in the next 10 years, new poll shows

  • I really doubt that, and I suspect by left you mean more akin to a right wing US Liberal type? I cannot think of a minute where actual leftists have not rallied against neoliberalism, capitalism, exploitation, and poverty.

    And because conservatives lied, that’s the lefts fault? Data shows that injection sites in Canada led to reduced crime in their neighbourhoods. But it’s easier for the right to make a scapegoat instead of follow data.

    Filtering out misinformation and right wing viewpoints helps solve the problem of misinformation and right wing viewpoints being spread. Which is the root cause of both of your issues.

  • Why don’t you provide some examples of the sort of diversity of opinion you would like to see here.

    What topics do you think we would benefit from by being exposed to “diverse”/right wing views on?

    I certainly can’t think of any, and it would help your argument if you could be less vague as it is to what you want to see.

  • We don’t need conservative viewpoints here, we have them at every other space outside of here and are bombarded with them daily while being subjected to live under them.

    If more conservative instances started opening, I would defederate from them.

  • What phrases/sentences instantly reveal someone as a chud?

    Jump

  • That’s such an American take.

    Here in Australia female doctor makes grammatical sense, and woman doctor sounds ridiculous. Woman doctor would have the same assumption as it also has an opposite in man doctor, which sounds equally as ridiculous unlike male doctor.

    Now you could say my doctor is a woman and that makes perfect sense whereas my doctor is a female is ferengi.

  • What if moderators were assigned by post instead of community?

    Jump

  • Doesn’t sound ideal.

    Moderated communities allow topics to stay on track and fit the theme of a community. It allows you to find different comms if you don’t agree with how one is being run.

    By reducing it to tags, you risk topics getting flooded with irrelevant things or bad takes, meanwhile OPs get to ensure no one in the comment can argue against whatever bad take they might make.

    Basically is makes the experience worse for every other user by cluttering feeds and promoting biased moderation.
