Lemmy seems to hate that word more than reddit funnily enough. It was my first instance of learning that Tankies have a FUCKED sense of priorities

You’re allowed to say Retarded here on not-Reddit.
I think.

A lot of us are really hoping Lemmy doesn’t turn into tankie-voat to the extent a lot of lemmy instances are staying away from tankie instances. Being uncool with some shit (like making fun of mentally handicapped people) is part of that.

1: The vast majority of people using the word Retard are NOT maming fun of mentally handicapped people, its a word used for someone who made a very stupid decision they were perfectly mentally capable of not making, both people who are and who arent mentally handicapped are capable of being retarded.
2: Its the tankie servers that gave me a 3 day ban for using the word, the fucked sense of priorities I was talking about was their supposed heavy support of social justice issues while simultaneously supporting/believing Russia/China have done nothing wrong

The vast majority of people using the word Retard
I have had too many mentally challenged folk in my life, and they are offended by it. It’s something to keep in mind.
the fucked sense of priorities… believing Russia/China have done nothing wrong
Oh yeah, they’re idiots. Thank god they’re not smart enough to make their dystopian wet-dream happen.

Depends on the instance! Our dot ml friends can’t say or even see it from others.

I’ve tried saying removed but it got censored.
This is a test to see if it’s instance or community based.

I said fag-got and it got censored. What a fucking joke. Why is a British suet pudding fucking illegal to say? What do they have against British food? Fucking faggits

Are you not allowed to on Reddit?
MindSkipperBro12@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Instant three day ban, I believe. Site wide.

Really? That’s retarded.

You’re allowed to do anything anywhere. All acts are permissible, in the grand scheme. I just don’t care to. Now bothering the people who want to say it, that’s my jam.
