Doc saw his opportunity to diversify out and pursue his lifelong desire to be a preacher 😂

Ethnically Chinese Canadian citizens have as much connection to the Chinese government as ethnically Russian Canadian citizens do to Putin and his war crimes in Ukraine.

What sort of "moral connotations" are you referring to? The term "hate crime" is pretty clear cut in Canadian law, defined in sections 318 and 319 of the Criminal Code.

I, for one, welcome our new Supreme Rulers of Truth and Fact!

They do a damn fine job and after all, we can't resist. They told us!

There’s no such thing as “So hateful it’s harmful”, that is a facade or a tool of deception used to censor someone because the other side can’t prove it to be false.

You cherry-picked the comment you quoted, leaving out important context: "Their view is so hateful that even giving a platform by engaging with it can be harmful." My reading of this point is that giving a hateful idea a platform to spread is a reason to disengage with it, because by engaging with it you are giving validity to it in the mind of the author of that idea.

Even so, this is such a strange statement for you to make. So strange that I simply have to ask further: How do you reconcile this idea of yours with both the continued existence of antisemitism online, and being the mod for the !judaism@lemmy.ca community? Don't you see antisemitism as a hateful set of beliefs that should be eliminated? That it should not be given a platform to spread? Of course, by your definition that would be "censorship".

And there it is. You finally show your true colours. Please stop trying to think so highly of yourself and leave this forum. This isn't "censorship", by the way. You are just an asshole.

You do understand that when someone discusses their beliefs, and those beliefs are hateful, then they have actually caused harm and damage to others, right? They took the action of espousing those beliefs, and they should be accepting of the consequences of doing so.

Reading between the lines of your comment, you seem to be trying to bait others into saying something like "I want censorship of beliefs", in an attempt to then turn around and feel justified in your beliefs because others "want to censor you". If you are truly trying to do this, please have some dignity and stop. You are arguing like a child.

Several folks hold the opinion (here's a recent one) that the Lemmy devs, acting as primary moderators for the lemmy.ml and lemmygrad.ml instances, have ignored moderation of pro-CCP, pro-communist discussion threads on those instances. This ends up being detrimental for Lemmy's reputation overall, as:

1. Those instances have some of the highest membership numbers, and as word-of-mouth spreads will mean a lot of newcomers to Lemmy will land into those large instances
2. If the devs don't moderate their instances a certain way, what are their motives that might bleed into the development direction that Lemmy itself will take? e.g. The devs' opinion on how to implement a slur filter

My own personal opinion here is that as long as the devs aren't building anything malicious or overly political into Lemmy, I don't really care what their personal beliefs are. I work with devs all the time that have different ideological or political beliefs, that doesn't change the quality of the code. Open-source software can be forked and modified if the Lemmy devs cross the line, and by design each instance can run their own version of the underlying software. How the Lemmy devs moderate their instances is only a reflection of their ability to act as effective moderators, which is why (again, by design) choosing your "home" instance is the most important aspect of engaging on Lemmy and the wider Fediverse.

This isn't the best way to cross-post. You just submitted the link to the post on !investing@lemmy.ca as a new post on !canada@lemmy.ca

Open the original post, then hit this cross-post button:

Then you can select the community to cross-post to. Your new post will then retain the proper cross-posting metadata so others can find the OP more easily. The power of the Fediverse can also be leveraged to cross-post across instances too, which I did with this cross-post of mine.

Well the most obvious one-to-one comparison is a Chevrolet Bolt (subcompact hatchback). Unfortunately Chevy has discontinued new production. Have you looked into it as an option?

Captain Sonar is a very fun game that is best played with the max player count and in "real-time mode", but can be scaled back in both player count and complexity.

I've also heard quite good things about Mind MGMT, but haven't personally had the chance to play it yet.

I found this GitHub issue about username changes from Nov 2021.

Doesn't seem like this will be a feature anytime soon.
