Comment on On Lemmy can we use the NA word or do we get ban? Not going to type it out because I do not want to get banned.

  I meant for it to describe a fascist government that only want blonde hair and blue eyes.

    Life pro tip: If a community would ban you for using the word Nazi (assuming you’re not being an asshole), make them ban you.

      Exactly. Hopefully you don’t get banned. But lemmy is my new newspaper after getting banned from reddit for using the NA words.

        I don’t think you understand Lemmy or moderation.

        If your instance bans you, it’s because you did something to breach their terms. Sign up for a new instance and read the terms. And then read the terms of any instance whose communities you subscribe to, and when in that community, follow THOSE terms AND your home instance’s terms.

        Even Reddit doesn’t ban people for the words they use. Subreddits sometimes do.

        What any community bans you for is how you behave. Context and actions over time matter.

        Well that’s because redditors are a bunch of nazis.

        Context really matters, you’ll absolutely be timed out if you’re an asshat but mods tend to be pretty communicative here.
