What you call "Christofascism" isn't a special variety of Christian ideology. It is simply the political ideology which says that Christianity should rule. By a fairly precise analogy with Islamism, it should be called Christianism.

You're doing the right thing. They're just trying to juice their own numbers by pressuring you to say something effusive.

that sentence is not only valid for gender, it's for anything other cultural label (like genders are).

How about race? Can white people elect to be Black?

Execs aren't suffering...

CS: GO, Don't Starve, and many others work natively on Linux with no need for Proton. This makes for the best experience.

Why are you "subtweeting" about this, just address the person who did it instead of pre-emptively accusing the entire Fediverse of doing it.

It's not like Redditors are all that nice in general, so why construct a narrative that it's so much worse here?

It's based on false premises like "everyone who ever downloaded the Reddit official app uses it forever"

[–] Gull@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Everyone who downloads the official app (like because they are blocked from viewing many threads on mobile) and then leaves it in disgust and never uses it again counts as a "download." That is very far from indicating what percentage of users are affected.

It depends on whether what you're about to say is "Hitler did nothing wrong." Nazis lost WWII, so the entire world is not safe for them. Nobody cares about creating safe space for Nazis.

You can make your own Fediverse instances and do whatever you want on them, but you will get instance-blocked and you can't force them to "reason" with you about it.

If you want to exist in the company of others, you must regulate your behavior. This is not dictatorial, each person gets to say on what terms they want to deal with you or not.

If someone is posting like a Nazi, it will always be more efficient to block their messages from propagating, than to require each and every user to individually see their messages and then block them.

This is an important question, because the Fediverse is actually full of instance blocks and incompatible Codes of Conduct.
