What is this hexbear rule? We are becoming the strawman fascists are making of us Edit: furthermore I think this does not help federation at all, I think we should follow the same principle that is used in extradition: it must be illegal in both states in order for the person to be extradite, or it needs to be illegal on both platforms to be removed, but again, that might lead to problems if a community deems racist jokes, for example, not illegal so we can’t do much about it, it’s an headache. Edit 2: i think I could be misunderstood easily, Im not attacking the platform, just saying that that’s a generally stupid rule.

    You’re going too far with this.

    Posting a picture of a mutilated animal corpse is the same as posting a picture of a mutilated human one, at best.

    Let’s be practical; having too broad a scope on what requires a trigger warning will have a trivialising effect. Do you expect people in general to tag nsfw for talking about their blt sandwich, for example? If not, then isn’t this all some kind of weird moralising flex?

    (And I’m tacking this on here because many of these militant veganists you praise have a habit of dismissing anyone who doesn’t completely agree with them as being hardened meat lovers who just hate vegans:

    I do advocate for bringing about the end of animal exploitation. I suppose the end goal if the vegan cause. I just think the way it’s being carried out here is incredibly alienating, and therefore ineffective.)
