  • I’m ganna look through this as someone who doesn’t quite understand Lemmy as well as a neurodivergent view point.

    Rules are one of those things I tend to overthink and struggle to fully understand what they’re trying to tell me exactly so ye be warned if my questions on something sound odd.

    ———

    Tier 1: Universal Rules

    Content with Specific Handling> Rule 10: Sensitive Content Labelling

    Mental health discussions that touch on self-harm, suicidal ideation, or eating disorders should carry a warning or a label.

    Why the specificity with eating disorders and what would be considered sensitive content for said disorder? If I’m talking about eating certain foods to better my mental health, is that considered warranting of a content label? Should I be labeling all food related things with a warning? If I talk about nutritional facts for an item, is that considered a sensitive topic and I should label it?

    I personally have an eating disorder so maybe thats why I’m not entirely sure what is warranting of a label because everything related to food can cause an issue.

    If this is a bulimia/anorexia specific problem I think that falls under self harm, no?

    Rule 3: Vote and Engagement Manipulation

    You cannot use multiple accounts to steer conversations deceptively. This includes sockpuppetry, astroturfing, or guerrilla marketing. Likewise, you cannot coordinate with other users to do the same.

    I don’t know what the terms sockpuppetry, astroturfing, or guerrilla marketing mean. An asterisk with a definition somewhere in the rules would be nice. I could look it up but I worry my understanding of these terms will differ from what you’re meaning.

    Rule 5: Spam and Advertising

    SEO-style link spam or traffic-driving posts

    I don’t know what SEO-style link spam means either…

    I’m keeping an eye out for the AI guidelines and will have more to say about that when theres more info. Labeling AI content is a fantastic start though.

    These are my thoughts! I hope the feedback was helpful in some way.









  • The argument I’ve been hearing against its use has been… odd to me?

    Multiple acquaintances have stated they think it’s immoral for people to use it as a form of birth control and those women should be killed/imprisoned and had poor character for not being responsible.

    “If you have more than 2 abortions a year you should be imprisoned and repeat offenders should get the death penalty.”

    I’ve never been sure how to combat that line of thinking because it’s so bizarre to me. The only thing that has kind of worked was “Do you want this ‘woman of poor character’ to raise children if they are so awful to you?”

    Otherwise any logical line of thinking is dismissed. Even stating “abortion is healthcare” is not enough for them.
