Hi lemmy! So this is kind of controversial, but hear me out. Let me start off by saying I’ve been on a few reddit alternatives, as I’ve mentioned in different posts, and I’ve seen language that is very hateful. I was disgusted by the language, but after seeing it over and over again, I just got sad. These people only know fear and hatred. I’m not sure anyone’s shown them kindness.
Should we be kind to those that we disagree with or that use hateful speech?
You mean like borat does? He’ll bring out people’s biases, and expose them.
Nope. Borat isn’t about discussion or improving society. He’s about making a spectacle out of bigotry and awkwardness.
