Dear, Lemmy... (lemmy.ml)

Hi, Lemmy! So I made two mistakes. But I'd like to inform Lemmy, that there is a free speech version of the Lemmy code being used to throw racial slurs around. That instance is called goatpen.co I advise you not to go there, as you will come across racial slurs on the front page.

So my first mistake was asking what people on discussions.app like to use for different social networks. One instance, as mentioned above was goatpen.co. My curiousity got the better of me, and I went to check it out. That was my second mistake. That place is a cesspool.

That's all I wanted to say. Someone or some company is using lemmy's code to host a lemmy-clone and make it a cesspool.

Can you explain how we could practically ban kitchen knives from being bought by murders? Also, have you seen minority report?

Also, have you seen minority report?

you think it's a joke? i'm out here fighting hate online by moderating reddit 10+ hours a day so people like you can have a nice environment

learn to take a joke bro, minority report is the name of a show so yeah, I think your reaction was funny

i apologize for not reading you comment properly and misinterpreting what you said

but i still find concerning that a movie with 'minority' in the name has a wh*te protagonist

The word minority has multiple definitions, to be clear refer to non white non straight people as minorities is ambiguous, they as a collective are a minority of the population and so so colloquially called minorities.
