You need to justify why celebrating someone’s death should not be allowed.
I’m not advocating for anyone dying, that’s a different bowl of nuts. Virtue signalling one’s own ethical purity might get you off, but it only annoys everyone else.
That’s Jordan for you. And then being smug about it too.
Maybe we see enough vitriol towards Windows and Mac users, people daring to praise anything that isn’t FOSS, or saying something nice about someone who isn’t a liberal, that even when we are relieved when a certain person is no longer living we don’t want to read dozens or hundreds of me-too posts full of vitriol. There’s the upvote button for that. I’m glad he’s gone but making a separate comment to essentially echo groupthink is (somewhat) a waste of time and effort. In some ways Lemmy is no better than Reddit.
I know that saying anything that goes against Lemmy groupthink and hatefeasts is guaranteed to get a down vote, but I don’t feel the need to make nasty comments so that I fit in around here.
Because the place would become toxic af. It’s a good rule.
Then ban toxic posts. Don’t shoot everyone just because they don’t blow kisses at a monster.
Again, you can call him an asshole without celebrating his death.
I just watched a doco on the Nuremberg trials today in Netflix - by way of coincidence. These guys were the GOATs at instilling a sense of justice and fairness. That was their prime and only job. Guess what, they also celebrated the bad guys deaths. Especially the really bad guy, but also the henchmen like Goring (who topped himself).
I’ll not keep on arguing because we are both sick of the topic. I just don’t understand the sacred seperation between permitting calling someone an arsehole when they are breathing, but the moment they stop breathing you can’t say ‘fantastic’. Great news.
But as you say, them be the rules, I guess?
