Someone got woken up on Sunday morning 🤣
A place to discuss problems of car centric infrastructure or how it hurts us all. Let's explore the bad world of Cars!
1. Be Civil
You may not agree on ideas, but please do not be needlessly rude or insulting to other people in this community.
2. No hate speech
Don't discriminate or disparage people on the basis of sex, gender, race, ethnicity, nationality, religion, or sexuality.
3. Don't harass people
Don't follow people you disagree with into multiple threads or into PMs to insult, disparage, or otherwise attack them. And certainly don't doxx any non-public figures.
4. Stay on topic
This community is about cars, their externalities in society, car-dependency, and solutions to these.
5. No reposts
Do not repost content that has already been posted in this community.
Moderator discretion will be used to judge reports with regard to the above rules.
In the absence of a flair system on lemmy yet, let’s try to make it easier to scan through posts by type in here by using tags:
I'm assuming he is talking about the biker gang episode, in which case he is probably talking about the F-word (meaning the slur against gay people).
Personally, I think having a filter against slurs is not unreasonable
Context is key though. I’d say allow everything and let the downvotes be a filter.
Lemmy is still relatively new, and you grow the audience you nurture.
A lack of moderation means that racists, bigots, general assholes, etc, will find an easier time settling on this platform.
And I'll be honest, if that would be where Lemmy is headed I'm not sticking around to see it turn into that cesspool
I'm personally quite happy with the level of moderation I'm seeing on lemmy.world. It's not overly heavy handed, but it seems to generally be applied where it makes sense to apply. Essentially the "don't be a dick" rules of the forum days of old.
