Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

That’s the vibe I always got from Reddit. But yeah, the vibe I get from Lemmy is that there are two demographics.
19-45 white male tech enthusiast and 19-45 white trans female tech enthusiast.
I'm not sure yet which one I am ಠ_ಠ
Oh damn, your certification ran out?
Which is interesting. On the early days of Digg it was the same demographic, although more politically center. Then in the early days of reddit the same thing happened. It was mostly Linux and tech. So having the same starting demo is not a bad thing, but the question is, will it grow to adopt others
cmon dont call me out like that :3
I think Lemmy skews towards the younger end though. Of course I could be very mistaken as this impression is entirely unscientific and is based solely on the levels of knowledge and general discourse that are prevalent on Lemmy.
To my eye, a large percentage of Lemmy's users are both relatively low-information and lacking in real life experience. They also tend to be very ideological which in my experience is something that tends to diminish with age.
Again, I could be very wrong about this.
There's also the leftists who decide very narrowly what opinions will be tolerated! Don't forget them!
Hey that's me :D
It's such a hilariously leftist trope to fuck up your own community's growth with purity tests
although i'm a white male in the age group i am neither of these... i know you didn't say everyone is in these groups, just here to represent us anti trans folks who don't know shit about computers. And they say commenting helps lemmy grow, so i'm doing that too.
"anti trans"
You mean "non trans" ('cis' being the technical term), right? "anti trans" implies hostility towards trans folk
Check some recent comments, they used the correct term to describe themselves.
i believe this to be satire... i hope
