@codinghorror but this is only happening now because other instances were publicly threatening to defederate right?
@codinghorror @jerry It's always interesting to think on how limits (as well as permissions) may cross their own borders.
Let's suppose I cite a very despicable person, enlisting all the reasons for which they should be disliked. Will it become "hate speech"? Or it won't, simply because my words are shared by "the good ones"?
All of this is just a reflection on how we can stay rational, respectful, but still express disapproval, or strong opinions.
the rule "Do not be the reason we need to add a new rule" was a new rule they needed to add where someone was the reason
Love your work @jerry
@codinghorror @jerry I end most of my driver's briefings at race meetings with "...and don't be the reason we have to write a new rule" so 💯 this. And firmly agree with the rules for the site
