       @kev I think this is a by-product of people fleeing here because they felt unsafe somewhere else... I mostly try to ignore it, but I agree it is silly and counterproductive to have such sensitivity for what something is called

       @Matter @kev that is a pretty good take on it.Can I toss a thing in to the ring? Ignore, Mute and Block. Its been my absolutely best friend here - knowing that I have no obligation to anyone with my free time, my interests or anything - and if something to me is even just a time waster - I ignore them, if that doesn't help I mute them, and if that doesn't help I block them.

       @kev @Matter Fair. I wonder... ok so its a bit late for this I suppose - but an admin account? Like one which you can log in (or several can log into to share the brunt of the hit) to deal with nonsense and then a personal oasis account where you can just mellow out?

       @kev So I enjoy this. I don't think of it as "gee there are a lot of snowflakes here", more "wow there are so many perspectives here I never even knew existed." I *want* to know what impact my words have on the people I'm talking to. It's eye-opening.

       It seems to be everywhere. Individuals claiming to be different and demanding to be recognised.What really annoys me are those that demand to be included in things where they have no talent or ability purely on the basis of "being represented".Are we to have Generals who are afraid of weapons? Or Doctors who are scared of blood? Will our lives be dictated by "Codes of Conduct"?@kev

       @kev there seem to be a lot of "safe space" instances with very different and often incompatible views. With that being the case, it seems that the fediverse should actually be a fediverse of fedisolarsystems (or something) which may end up being isolated from one another. We do see that happening anyway with people blocking instances which refuse to block other instances and so on. I'm not sure if this is a good thing or not.

       @kev @Matter @fosstodon To expand on the subject a tad though - I think its relevant to consider that this is how many of us treats real life. For example - someone say something homophobic and I will most probably point that out, OR worry that I can't point that out for fear of what might happen. There isn't any real gray area there, its fear or "normal". So here where we are all interconnected people react together and that can be problematic, but it can also be good.

       @kev @Matter @fosstodon Which is why I tend to step back instead if something feels too "open nerve endings". Not because I agree necessarily, but because its often way more going on than just that one time someone said that one word.It is, as weird as it might sound, a sign of quality that you hear a lot of this since in many places people just... don't. And if its like IRL homophobia - that is often a sign not of not-caring but being afraid of pointing it out.

       @kev you're missing the point. It's not about reclaiming and changing meaning, it's just about not using those words because of the charged history they have. Do you call black and PoC folx the N* word? Do you call men Masters of the house? Do you call handicapped people cripples/gimps? If you don't, why don't you? If you really feel like words don't have meaning? @brainblasted

Diversity of opinion is a good thing - people should have the freedom to say things without worrying that it might make some people unhappy (within reasonable constraints).

       @jamie @kev People have the freedom to do that. That has not changed. What has changed is that people are getting called out for being assholes, where before this would have been silently accepted.Many times, people do not actually realise that they are being assholes. In these cases they can either listen to what they are being told, and try to adjust accordingly, or they can complain about told.

       @WAHa_06x36 @kev Completely agree - I just think the manner in which people disagree about these issues on the fediverse, or even social media in general, is sometimes a little perverse.

       @jamie @kev Are they though, really? Have you actually tried seeing things from their side? That they might have had to put up with shit for a very long time, and are quite fed up with it, while it has never registered to you?

       @WAHa_06x36 @kev Yes. I think the Fediverse, and social media in general, has a big problem dealing with diverse opinions - but that's just my opinion, dump it in the bucket with all the rest.

       @jamie The problem is that social media is not an optimal platform for real discussion.   In real life, one on one, you can make progress, but on the internet, unless both people want to learn, you'll end up with people talking past each other and no progress being made.@WAHa_06x36 @kev

       @jamie @kev There is a difference between an opinion and being an ass. And if you are not able to present your opinion without also being an ass, that is not really a problem of your surroundings, it is much more likely to be a problem of your opinions, and a good hint that you need to rethink them.

       @DashEquals @jamie @kev No, it's not. There is no such thing as "discussion/debate", "debate" is a very specific type of disucssion, and the vast majority of discussions are not debates, nor should they be treated as such.Sometimes, you are just being told you are an ass, and you need to suck it up and apologise. The other party has no obligation in such an exchange.

       @DashEqualsI have to disagree with you there, I think. Even though we do collectively decide what words mean (and by extension, how offensive they are), there's also a historical component to that meaning. The N-word means what it means because of a global history of oppression of the specified race of people. "Masters of the house" when calling men that is problematic because women, historically, were not in positions of power. And "gimp" hasn't been used to celebrate disabled bodies, historically. None of this is something can be over turned by a single decision to use these words - it takes time.Additionally, when dealing with requests to moderate language in general, their may be factors other than historical at play. I don't know what they may be, and the person doing the asking may not want/be able to articulate them. Because I don't know what factors might be at play, but do know it's causing distress, I tend to take these requests in stride, and abide by them.I want everyone to feel comfortable. The world in general may not be so kind, but I can control this corner of it.@maloki @kev @brainblasted

       @dankwraith @kev Usually the people who bitch the most about empathy have the least of it. If you genuinely try to be considerate of others first and foremost, other people tend to want to be considerate of you. The opposite effect occurs if you make a bunch of aggressive demands about how people need to conduct themselves around you.

       @kev Words like these have been used and continue to be used to make people (like the people you mentioned) feel of less value to society and denigrate them to the point of feeling invalid. This toot breaks our CoC and and as the Admin of Fosstodon you should know better. You're staining the Fosstodon and by extension the FOSS community. You may not have had malice in mind, but that's certainly been how it's perceived, and the effect is the same as if you had malice in mind

       @kev If someone is simply hurt by your words or actions and makes you aware of that, then it's still not crazy at all to try to accommodate that.

       @DashEquals> which is not offensive, even though it's arguably using that slurit's using it, full stop.someone using it while being ignorant of, or worse indifferent to, its history is usually a pretty big red flag for meif I engage or don't block someone once they use it, or other slurs, that way, it's to keep an eye out for whatever other shit they're getting up to@maloki @kev @brainblasted

       @kev That's... really unfortunate to hear. I'm having a hard time squaring that circle with your Code of Conduct, which claims to be "radically inclusive" and specifies:> [we are committed to] making participation in Fosstodon an oppression-free experience for everyoneThis kind of opinion kind of makes me question the commitment that your CoC makes. Can you help me understand where you're coming from, here?

       @ashfurrow how am I being exclusive by having an opinion of some people’s over-sensitivity?

       @kev okay, well how are you being radically inclusive, then? I’m just confused because your CoC has the language of inclusion, but you’re complaining about pronouns in bios. Something doesn’t add up here, yeah?

       @ashfurrow @kev Yeah wow, that's kinda messed up."We are committed to making participation in Fosstodon an oppression-free experience for everyone, regardless of level of experience, gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, personal appearance, body size, race, ethnicity, age, religion, or nationality."But "pronouns in bios make [Kev] cringe"Apparently, you need to be on the approved gender identity list to be "radically included" here? 🤷

       @ohyran not to mention just unfollowing people whose posts don't feel like a good use of my finite attention. In most situations, unfollow, mute, and block are a much more effective way of changing your online experience than trying to police other people's expression, either directly or via pressure on the admin of their instance. If for no other reason than it's most similar to how we handle in-person social interaction.@Matter @kev

       @ashfurrow hey Ash, sorry been away the last couple days, so not been online much.To me, inclusive means to treat people fairly wherever possible. By ‘radically inclusive’ we wanted to articulate that we mean _everyone_.So if someone joins Fosstodon and you message me saying “Hey Kev, that person that just joined is homophobic” I wouldn’t just take your word for it, I’d wait to see evidence of that homophobia before taking action.1/2

       @ashfurrow oh, and the gender thing...That makes me cringe, not because I’m against the whole they/them thing, but because I think it has no relevance here.Again, I’d take no action against those who choose to put something like that in their profile.

       @kev okay, that helps me understand a bit better. Glad you’re revising your CoC. It’s very, very difficult to differentiate between when someone else is being over-sensitive, and when we simply lack the perspective to understand their (justified) sensitivity. I err on assuming they’re justified. Example: to a trans person, their gender identity is always relevant to them. Not so much to you or me, but our gender expression isn’t scrutinized by society. You know?
