you cannot have a functioning community (at scale) with both diversity and 'anti-diverse' ideology in coexistence, so one needs to go; and my choice for what needs to go is very definitively on the side of 'anti-diverse ideology'
I think that's assuming that people are monolithic, and already giving up on the group deemed "bad". Of course I agree that if people are antagonistic and causing unnecessary outrage, then they should go.

@joepie91:pixie.town@joepie91:pixie.town Jonas Chevalier: as I've already stated before, I do not believe that anyone is 'unfixable' or 'fundamentally bad'. but to put it in explicit terms, as long as one adheres to and expresses an oppressive ideology, they are a threat to a (potential) subset of the community 17:57:15
@joepie91:pixie.town@joepie91:pixie.town those people have the choice to not follow that oppressive ideology, and be welcomed back into the community 17:57:38
@joepie91:pixie.town@joepie91:pixie.town oh, to be clear: with "expresses an oppressive ideology" I do not mean "talking about politics" 17:59:32
@joepie91:pixie.town@joepie91:pixie.townit is generally far, far more subtle than that.17:59:43
@zimbatm:numtide.com@zimbatm:numtide.comagain, this is a very specific view on diversity17:59:49
@joepie91:pixie.town@joepie91:pixie.towncorrect.17:59:56
@joepie91:pixie.town@joepie91:pixie.townI think pretty much all of the views I've expressed here have been very specific :)18:00:12
@joepie91:pixie.town@joepie91:pixie.townas I've mentioned, I think all the cards should be put on the table18:00:40
@zimbatm:numtide.com@zimbatm:numtide.comagain, this is very reminiscent of the American culture war18:03:14
@zimbatm:numtide.com@zimbatm:numtide.comit's painting a picture where there are some types of marginalized groups, that need special protections, across very specific lines18:04:10
@zimbatm:numtide.com@zimbatm:numtide.comnobody is talking about mentally disabled people for example18:04:31
@joepie91:pixie.town@joepie91:pixie.townthat's because there are. and I reject the framing of a 'culture war', which implies this is some sort of passing fad. in reality, it's just a long history of systemic social issues coming to a head and finally getting addressed18:05:00

people are talking about that, stigmatization of mental illness is an issue
18:05:42
@zimbatm:numtide.com@zimbatm:numtide.comwhat I mean is that there is a specific order that is being painted18:07:10
@zimbatm:numtide.com@zimbatm:numtide.comand sorry to those who have been though this 1000 times :p18:07:36

yes, there is. and contrary to what people often claim, that is not actually a bad thing - it's explicitly calling things out instead of leaving them implicit.
18:08:11
@zimbatm:numtide.com@zimbatm:numtide.com^ this whole notion is basically what people call "woke"18:08:18
@joepie91:pixie.town@joepie91:pixie.town there is a specific order in society. that is true whether or not you call it out. 18:08:34
@joepie91:pixie.town@joepie91:pixie.townwe live in a hierarchical society.18:08:48
