i’m doing it because I want to make the fediverse more friendly place, in hopes of making it more welcoming for new users, and the nicer place in general. But I wonder how much is just less bots.

    See, I know what you are trying to say, and I would agree with the basis of it, but I’m not for using manipulation techniques (fake empathy, implied moral superiority, ad hominem attack) to “win” the argument.

      What is he trying to say? Because what I hear is “Anyone who’s opinion is not 100% in lockstep with mine is an evil fascist racist nazi transphobe”.

        Taking the comment in the best possible way, the person was pointing out that even if we’re nice and positive so far here on Lemmy, you will still be called out for blatantly racist comments.

          That’s quite a generous reading.

          I still see “if you don’t agree with me 100% you’re a racist”.
