/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ **8. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

MODERATORS
Wow. Please link to that thread. Squid might not be a moderate, but he would only be extreme to those who support genocide and other fascist crap.
Well he isn't the most extreme and is actually fairly reasonable by Lemmy standards. I know that others have complained so I figured I'd bring it up.
Also calling anything you disagree with fascist and genocide is really fair. There is always another side to the story.
Who said anything about my beliefs? Way to totally expose all your arguments as just being personal attacks you dreamt about or "heard or reddit."
I was referencing what people who are actually extreme on this platform sometimes actively promote. You need to stop judging people so quickly by what you think you have understood if you would like to be persuasive.
Edit: Also still waiting for a link to that post on reddit.

I personally do not have any issues or beef with flying squid. They seem like a decent user but I have also gotten used to the crazy takes here. My point is that we should be more aware of beliefs and echo chambers.
Welp, that one user on reddit just cannot handle opinions that differ from their own. Nor can they clearly state what squid said that upset them. Sounds like that user only wants to hear their own opinion on things, which is really what creates an echo chamber. Sad for them to miss out on all sorts of cool stuff.
But I completely agree with you about fighting the echo chamber effect. However, that does not mean anyone should be careful about putting thier opinions out there, that would just result in a different type of echo chamber. Blocks should only be for trolls, and not for differing opinions.
I think mods should avoid having opinions
