I guess racism is a worldview? As long as individuals can just never visit that dark corner of the Internet, it doesn’t need to be technically defederated, thereby not blocking other non-fascist and racist communities. (To block those communities, just visit: https://kbin.social/magazines?q=thedonald and hit the ∅ )
If you don't want to see it, you have the tools to block the community. Users should also have the ability to block entire instances. Instead of trying to push your agenda onto everyone else, maybe join an instance like beehaw that is already doing that. You'll be much more welcomed there and won't be ruining things for people who prefer to moderate themselves.
I opened that community, I didn't see any racist posts
Support for Trump is inherently racist, homophobic, transphobic, and misogynistic.
Good lord. These are the people wanting to control what others see. It's insane the hoops they have to jump through to seem legitimate.
Just say, "I don't like Trump and I don't want anyone else to see support for him." You'll come across as more genuine.
Not being from USA, I could not really care any less about Trump.
But your take is just insane in my opinion.
To me it seems like that the hate towards Trump is purely political, and I did not really see a strong evidence of him being that wildly racist
No it isn't. Get your head out of the sand.
Im just going to put this out there, if you enable any criminal to commit more crimes, then you are culpable for the crimes he commits. The same goes for supporting any political candidate who commits crimes, you are supporting those crimes as well, including all past and present and future crimes.
I have no problem with criminal who have paid their debt to society and are generally repentant of what they have done.. so once donny has done his time and publicly repents for the crimes he committed, then I'll be fine with him too and his supporters.
Supporting Biden and Clintons also makes you complicit in crimes they committed all over the world? I have nothing against that statement, but you should really keep the same standard for everyone and not be selective.
"I'm not a bigot I just don't consider being a bigot to be a deal breaker" is such a weird defense for voting Trump.
lol, okay
