How about, instead of calling people bootlicker, we suggest the person reevaluate their position and give them a chance to adjust their perspective. People tend to entrench themselves in their opinion when attacked. There isn’t any excuse for a person to lose their freedom because another wants to “make a point”. Sorry not poking anyone deliberately, just the dozenth or so post I’ve read that has been aggressive rather than educational. Lemmy is supposed to be better, we can keep it better together. Have a good day

Try to remember, words are just that, words. Intent is what makes them good or bad.

I’m so torn on this. Huge fan of the original, but excited to see what they do with it. Hope it comes out good.

If you want a community with training wheels and is open to general discussions, come say hi. Its a place where you can work past the fear of being downvoted or insulted. You are welcome here. 😀

Thank you, that doesn’t sound like a bad idea and I’ll post a couple like that to see how it’s received. Appreciate the input!

Sorry to poke my head in here, but if you could point me in the direction on how to communicate better with my 16yo son who is “high functioning?” On the spectrum? He’s into “gangsta lifestyle?” But anyways there’s too much to unpack. I support him and love him, and I think he knows it but I’d like to be able to help him more. All the ? Marks are because I’m not sure of the terms or if they offend, I’m just trying to ask for help. Thank you

In my move over to lemmy I got nostalgic for how some older things were done, what you might be talking about are FAQs for specific topics like we had in the Usenet days. If this interests you, I have a new community started for collecting and creating those kinds of things. Not much there yet but I’ll grow it over time and would love for others to contribute.

And a shameless plug for my other community https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/bbses
