In the interest of moderation transparency, we’ve had a couple of reports about this post.
Here’s my thinking about it:
Community purpose
- This post is more political that would ordinarily be seen on AskLemmy, ⬇️
- it is an open-ended thought provoking question, ⬆️
- it is generating healthy and informative discussion and debate. ⬆️
Rule 1:
- the post is not trolling, sealioning, racist or toxic, ⬆️
- the topic is contentious but seems to be worded politely, ⬆️
- the author has voluntarily amended the question to be more sensitive in their framing. ⬆️
Rule 3:
- it does not fit the definition of spam or astroturfing ⬆️
On balance, I’m going to let the post remain up.

It’s a Portmanteaux of Lemmy and humans.
Rule 5. Support/Lemmy meta question. Locking.
Support question. Please post in !support. Locking.
It’s 4 days late, but I’ll wade in.
It’s possible to express an opinion without being an asshole about it. That’s what Rule 1 is about. Not censorship.
I don’t like (factual) Y about country X. <- Doesn’t breach Rule 1.
The people in country X are all shit stains <- Breaches Rule 1.
Diplomatic honesty is fine (at least with me).
What isn’t fine are:- Personal attacks,
- Doxxing, trolling, sealioning,
- attacks on whole groups of people because of:
- stereotypical characteristics.
- ingroup-outgroup bias,
- readily disprovable dis/misinformation.
In summary, respectful debate is welcome. Nastiness is not.
Remember Rule 1 people.
Woah, woah, woah. Let’s not get too carried way here. Some things we just shouldn’t talk about.
Beards, not mullets!
We’ll I’ll agree that it’s better than c:/user/home/technicallythetruth/
6·22 days agoLet’s start with the second part of your question? How do you make someone understand that invading another country is not a good thing?
The Washington Post estimated that during his presidency, Trump made more than 30,000 false or misleading statements.
Lies like he breathes.

I’m hoping you just forgot an /s. But just in case, there’s nothing ‘ordinary’ about it. Unless you are talking about the ‘new ordinary’.

When a wannabe dictator says you won’t have to vote any more…
