People should have a passing knowledge of the major political parties in major nations. I don't know all the political figures in say Germany but I know if someone is an AfD member I should ignore what they have to say. Just because you don't live in a country doesn't mean you should be ignorant about how their government works, unless you like listening to propagandists with an exotic flair

Ah, I see. I agree

And again, these are adults on an instance that was explicitly designated for NSFW works. Defederating was entirely within your right but these justifications seem really poorly thought out, and could have unintended consequences.

Should we shun non consensual play? Should we defederate from anything that shows BDSM? Because I can't see any reason why your justifications wouldn't apply to them

But they are adults, no?

I wrote a comment but got more aggressive than I intended. My overall point though is there are young looking adults, there are old looking kids. Making a sweeping statement like you did is just wrong

I'm sorry, could you rephrase that? I'm not sure I understand

Responses are pointless, I'm going to remake my account in another instance when I'm done with work. Enjoy insulting people and living your prudish dreams

Exscuse me but you're the one being disengenious, a NSFW instance had what!? Porn!? Stop the fucking presses. Are we going to defederate from all porn instances or just the ones you find icky? Where can I post my objection to having to be subjected to porn at all?

The topic was about porn of a straight couple, but be a disgusting gremlin I guess

Oh stfu

I guess Trans Littles can just go fuck off then? One of the biggest Trans comics artist is openly a little. Why are we in the business of regulating what consenting adults do?

... Aye aye captain sobs

Does not being popular really mean anything if they seize the courts, rig the vote, and court the support of the police?

Does the "demographic war" mean a damn thing when they can still push their agendas with no resistance? Would it mean anything when the VAST majority of cops and service members support them? It feels nice to be the popular kids but does it mean a damn thing in the end

The only thing worse than a bigot is a cowardly bigot.

Mistakes? The premium was one of the best choices Musk made. Everyone kept using it and it allowed him to just extract wealth from people for no consequences. Why wouldn't other companies follow suit?

Why would we give the benifit of doubt to him? Have you been asleep for the last decade?

When stuff goes poorly in a socialist regime it's always "this is proof of socialisms short comings and shows the inherent inhumanity of such an ideology!" but when it comes to capitalism it's always "individual people who are corrupted misused the system to do harm, and yeah it keeps happening but it's not an inherent trait of our system!"

You know, I objected to this meme quite a bit... But you make a very compelling arugement

Christine Jorgensen began transitioning in the early twenties and was a pretty major celebrity. When the Nazis took power some of the Authors they attacked were sexologists. Trans issues weren't something completely alien to them, they probably wouldn't take asking them their pronouns well but it wouldn't be hard to explain.
