  • I think I understand the point you’re making. My immediate reaction is… get a haircut? I suppose it’s not that easy for a lot of people though, and I get wanting a place you don’t have to deal with the stress.

    Why try to create a closed off environment on an open forum though? If that’s the goal, why not build the community on a closed forum? There are also tools at an individual level like down voting, blocking users, and blocking communities.

    Cutting off a huge segment of the fediverse seems like a bad move this early in it’s growth.

    Just to be clear on my perspective. Anyone going to any community just to fuck with them is a low being who should evaluate their life and choices. I’m concerned about the health of the fediverse, I don’t support the trolls.


  • Marine boot camp, infantry school, and Ramadi all felt pretty unsafe. My latchkey childhood roaming the streets of Las Vegas felt pretty unsafe.

    Much more interested in the free exchange of ideas, that’s why im hanging out in an open forum discussing random shit with strangers to get perspective different than my own.

    What makes me feel unsafe is the thought that not walking on eggshells softly enough might hurt some petty tyrants feelings and they’ll use their small sliver of influence to cut me off. We should be able to talk freely with each other.

    For example, I’m really enjoying this discussion right now.
