I’d like to do a series on 56 different emotions which we’ll eventually get through as time permits.
Anger
Anger is an intense emotion defined as a perceived provocation, the invasion of one’s boundaries, or a threat. From an evolutionary standpoint, anger serves to mobilize psychological resources in order to address the threat/invasion. Anger is directed at an individual of equal status.
Try to keep it fresh by what is current but its also cool to retrospect
Lemmy censorship. U cant say the word “retarded” but you can call for the literal murder elon musk. It makes me angry the mods are too blinded by political bias to apply the rules equally.
It’s much worse on Reddit. There is a growing lexicon of words you can’t even use in a comment without having a bot swoop in and nuke your post from orbit, all because a snowflake moderator doesn’t like reading them.
I too get your sentiment about Lemmy’s double standards. At least Spez was consistent about banning people for calling for the literal murder of billionaires.
Case in point. Larry Ellison, CEO of Oracle, recently shared his vision of using AI powered mass surveillance to ensure everybody was on their best behaviour. Pretty much everybody on Lemmy called for him to be guillotined, whereas on Reddit such a comment would net you a permanent ban.

You spelled “Waaaaaaaaaaah! I got banned for being an insensitive bigot!” wrong.
Explain how its insensitive or bigotry? It has the exact same origins and meaning as moron and dumb whats the difference?
I’m not going to explain to you why calling people a “retard” is wrong. I have no doubt that you know already that it is insensitive and offensive- and you’re here to troll the subject.
Do better.
That doesnt answer the question Whats the difference between “reatard”, “idiot”, and “moron”?

This was the logical extension of my original argument. There are 2 cases retarded moron and idiot have no different and thus all should be treated equally. Or they have a difference(that you cannot define) worth classifying one as significantly worse.
Are you telling me calling someone dumb or a moron is equivalent to calling them retarded?
I was complaining about censorship and unequal application of rules i think a common word should be a significantly less bannable offence than calling for murder just pointing out the doublethink.
I was not suggesting anyone do anything violent, in fact i stated multiple times i dont support violence.
“Playing” implies that im not a genuine victim of unequal application of moderation rules. This entire thread is about drawing attention to that very fact as you so kindly pointed out.
You’re not going to defend your right to call people “retards” to me here. Ableism is disgusting and frankly, I’m getting creeped out by the fact that you are trying so hard.
Go away.
Im not defending anything and i dont care how u feel about me. Answer the question why can i say moron but not retard? What is the difference?
I’m not going to help you find your right to call people names. Adults don’t behave that way.

In r/wallstreetbets they use the word regarded instead, which is just funny to me. People buying stocks at the wrong time can be hilarious, even though sometimes sad of course.

That’s only the case on lemmy.ml, that’s been disabled on most of the instances
On which community did this happen?
Lemm.ee acvount commenting on a lemmy.world community got my account full deleted for saying retarded. And just use the lemmy search and type guillotine and u will get hundreds of examples on world and .ml.
Just do one search for ‘guillotine’ and you’ll find a heapload of comments on Lemmy world and Lemmy.ml
