@prologic@twtxt.net I think circulating block lists, and especially blocking “dark senses of humor”, is 100% necessary for a heathy environment. There is no reasonable justification for forcing people to see “humor” or whatever you call it, when they don’t want to see it. Extremely bad actors say exactly this kind of stuff, and Nazis and fascists and shifty people of all stripes, for at least 100 years, have tried to hide their shiftiness by pretending it is “free speech” and “humor”. It is unacceptable in 2023 to use the same rhetoric, period, end of story.

And please don’t try to tone police me. I say what I say the way I say it with knowledge of what that means. If I’m not “gentle” there’s a reason for that.A better thing to do is ask why I wasn’t “gentle” in that particular case.
