And the less rights the minority currently has, the more political it is.

And when it's a minority I haven't heard of before, that's trolling.

Missing leg personality disorder is a personality disorder marked by lack of one or more legs. Diagnosis requires at least 5 of the following 9 criteria:

• Cannot walk
• Hops around to get from place to place
• Has a stump at the place where the knee would be
• Leans on other people a lot
• Displays a lack of interest in athletic pursuits
• Obsession with obtaining a prosthetic leg
• Aversion to travelling
• Becomes hostile when asked to stand up
• Cannot drive stick shift

Missing leg personality disorder can be diagnosed only if these symptoms are not considered normal in the patient's native culture. Missing leg personality disorder cannot be diagnosed if prosthetics make the patient ineligible for diagnostic criteria.

“Star Trek was an attempt to say that humanity will reach maturity and wisdom on the day that it begins not just to tolerate, but take a special delight in differences in ideas and differences in life forms. […] If we cannot learn to actually enjoy those small differences, to take a positive delight in those small differences between our own kind, here on this planet, then we do not deserve to go out into space and meet the diversity that is almost certainly out there.” ― Gene Roddenberry

My post got banned for being "wrecker behaviour". I don't know the community here, I joined because people said Hexbear is trans friendly, can someone explain the terminology? Google has other people using the word but nobody explaining it

When it comes to subreddits, lemmy communities, and lemmy instances, the people enforcing the rules are the same people making the rules. To borrow from legal terminology, the legislative, executive, and judicial branches are the same. Mods and admins are judge, jury, and executioner. This gives them a lot of power and allows biases in the way they enforce the rules to go ignored.

When it comes to the reddit admins, however, and sitewide bans and content removal, the people enforcing the rules are employees. They report to a boss, and have to follow guidelines already established. The content policy has already been written, and changing it is a big deal. If a ban is unjust, it can be appealed using the rules. When biases in the ways the rules are enforced happen, it's easier to undo them. And I'm not saying it's easy, but on Lemmy, it's impossible. You can't even log into your account if you're banned, how are you supposed to appeal?

Reddit as a business has a great deal more power than any fediverse instance's mod teams. But ironically, the low ranking admins have less power to make bad decisions. And that's why I've noticed a consistent pattern that Reddit is better at moderating cases that are legally clear-cut, but emotionally controversial. On Lemmy, admins follow their feelings. On Reddit, people may have a lot of feelings, but the proletariat administration intern has had feelings beaten out of them, and they more often end up following the rules.

The way Reddit operates is soulless and horrible and capitalist, but... soul is where hatred comes from. You're less likely to find that in the workings of an unfeeling machine.
