It’s an okay point. Yes, the oil you must change every so often can be recycled. But I’m sure we’re talking about the other oil, that is, gasoline, which is absolutely not recyclable. The other poster is probably an oil and coal shill.
Thanks! I’ve been to Beehaw a few times in the past, and I liked what I’ve seen. I guess it’s time to make it my home once and for all.
All good points. I’m just tired of moving to a spot (slashdot, digg, reddit, etc) only for it to be invaded by the same toxic, race-baiting crowd. And I think in the fediverse that may occur way more often. Say, today I’m in Lemmy.world. Then I move to Beehaw. Then Reddthat, etc…
We shall see.
We disagree, and that’s okay.
It really is rather selfish
Uh, yeah. I already mentioned that.
Good to know. I’ll start blocking, then.
But I don’t want the fediverse to become mainstream!!
I know, I know, most people think it’s the best thing.
But I selfishly prefer the fediverse to be as it is now. Actually, as it was a couple of months ago. Lemmy is already being filled with rage-baiting bullshit, which is one of the reasons I decided to leave reddit.
Well, I don’t really have a position. I think pedophilia is heinous, but I understand that sexual attraction is not a choice. Would an internet forum be a good and healthy supporting tool for pedophiles making an effort to do the right thing? That’s the question I’m trying to answer.
I’ll play the devil’s advocate here. Not supporting or opposing your point of view. Just to add to the discussion. Let’s use another extreme: People with a killing spree sexual attraction. I know, I know, it may be not the same, and it’s something that doesn’t exist (God I hope!) But for the sake of the argument, let’s assume it does.
You have this forum of people posting memes about mass killings and frustrations about not being able to kill, but that you would totally never ever kill anyone, even though the urge is there.
What would you think of such community? Would it be a safe one?
(Dear CIA, NSA, FBI agents, the above is just a completely hypothetical scenario. I am a law-abiding citizen. Always have, always will.)
“Squint your eyes”
Picture of two Asian child laborers.
Squint.
Asian.
Hmmmm… feeling edgy today, OP?
Why would you expect that from a fediverse community post?
I blame the thumbnail, though.
Edit: or maybe I can’t take a joke…
What’s reddit?
Facebook?
That’s an excellent point.
Can you make the inverse one? Cow body, human head?
A full frontal nude can be art. That doesn’t mean it’s necessarily safe for work. And things can get veeery specific and veeeery specific with art.
Do I mind nudity in art? Nope. Do I mind an artsy piece in which people are bathing in poop? Damn right I mind. I’d rather not see that. So, if a community allows it, I’ll just move on to a different one.
Well, have you heard about that judge who said that “there’s no way to define what porn is, but that you know it when you see it”?
I think the above can be applied to these cases.
In my opinion, the Norman photo implies nudity. Your photo doesn’t. So the Norman photo feels more like NSFW than your photo. Yours is not necessarily safe for work, though. Having said that, I’m okay with other people having a different opinion.
And in the end, if the admins or moderators have a set of rules to keep things consistent within the community, abide by them and move on. Don’t like them? Go to a different community.
What is your purpose?
