@sh.itjust.worksI just basically finished Tears of the Kingdom. 150 hours, all shrines, almost all the armour, and pretty much all the side-quests done, plus the main quest. Probably my favourite game ever. Once my internet starts working again, I'm probably going to be playing Okami HD
They want to burn a Qur’an right outside Stockholm’s main Mosque. How is that not incitement to violence or racial hatred?
If I burned a copy of the Torah outside a Synagogue, would that just be an expression of ‘free speech’? Or would I not be giving a pretty unambiguous signal of both what I think of the people inside and the way that we should treat them?
This absolutely should not have been allowed to go ahead. It is incitement to violence and racial hatred.
I don't think he's completely wrong. A lot of people felt similarly. I know SkillUp felt similarly that if you had a really good PC and could overlook the (unforgiveable, admittedly) bugs, it had a lot going for it.
I think it's fine for communities which are created for specific political, social movements etc to do so. But when you get broader communities like this one, it's much more difficult and thorny to figure out. If you set up a socialist server, crack on with defederating from right-wing ones. If your server is about environmental activism, swing the banhammer on anyone who questions climate change. I legit have no problem with that.
I suspect there's very little disagreement about keeping The Donald types defederated and related /c/s banned. But that's only the easy edge of it.
Servers like this one need to be really careful we don't get whittled away by various niche groups demanding bans and defederations.
If a server allows conservative users, or people who think that sex-based rights are important, or that anti-Zionism is racism, etc etc etc. Do we ban them? If someone believes the existence of the state is good, and that prison and punishment can be justified, are they white supremacists and fascists, as many anarchists believe? Where do we draw that line?
Why don't we just keep it to Trump/MAGA servers, trolls and bot-farms, and communities which directly interfere with and undermine ours, or at least something in that ballpark
