In my opinion this is actually better than the CoC. The only thing "missing" is the definition of which qualities you shouldn't discriminate against. But that's now generalized into "groups of people".
I still can't discriminate against people based on any qualification. Hell, I technically can't discriminate against "pineapple on pizza eaters".
Good. Because it's fucking delicious and I don't care what the internet says. We all loved it in the 90s, and nothing has changed. It's still delicious, we just do less coke now.
Jalapenos with the pineapple is so stupidly good. You get bacon on there and then it's like the crossroads of heavenly flavors. It's not a pizza for the meek.
It's a five gallon hat wearing, tambourine hand flailin, tastebuds up the wall wailin, genuine taste sensation!
Bacon or pepperoni. You need something salty do to do the job that ham fails to do.
Jalapenos are semi-optional. If they're too spicy for someone, then pepperoni might be the choice. There needs to be something spicy to complement the pineapple.
Ok, just making sure. I've met people that enjoy under cooked pizza and bread sticks and I've come to realize that they all tend to suck outside of just their choice of gross pizza. Like who the fuck orders underdone pizza that you plan on sharing?
Deep dish is awesome and you go with like a spinach, mushroom, onion and garlic... What a pie!
Erotic pizza talk aside, look up recipes for making pizza in a cast iron skillet. Some of the best pizza you'll ever have and it takes very little effort once you get the motions down. Treat yo self!
Update, I bought myself a nice chunky cheesy pineapple pizza with capsicum, jalapeno, tomatoes, cottage cheese and some chillies. It was from a nice local pizza bakery for $10. I got to eat a piece of heaven in many years.
By my reading of it, you can still discriminate against pineapple pizza eaters, or any other group whatsoever, you just can't harass, bully, violate their privacy or threaten them with violence. Which is fine by me, if someone wants to make a community only for ginger haired people and ban anyone they think isn't naturally ginger, that's their perogative.
That was my takeaway, too, and I think it's positive. The nice thing is, if it turns out that the policy fosters behavior that's bad for the broader community, they can change it.
Some people have given you guys a lot of flack, but I really think you're making a thoughtful, good faith effort to do things right, and I think you're doing well. There have been a couple things that I thought were the wrong decision, but (1) they've been relatively minor, and (2) they've been reasonable even if I might have chosen differently. I very much appreciate the thought that goes into running this place.
So you totally invited the OP of this post to discuss and provide feedback, right? You didn't immediately go nuclear on the slightest criticism, ban them to keep them from discussing the problem further, and refuse to change the rules?
Yeah, the lemmy.world admin in this thread is flat out lying when they say discrimination is banned. No rule against slurs, rumours, or stereotypes. Or just generalised hate.
I think you can't read it too literally. Otherwise you also can't discriminate against "people who wrote their comment later" and so you can never stop reading the comments for fear of discriminating between "early comment writers" and "late comment writers".
I just replied this to another commenter, but that's a bad faith argument. The ToS also says to not engage in illegal activity. The admonishment of Nazi's and Racists is an admonishment of illegal evil.
Uh, the US has vetoed multiple attempts by the UN to condemn the glorification of Nazis. I hate to break it to you, but Nazis and racists are not illegal.
Got it. Transphobia and racism are the same as memes about eating pineapple pizza. Might as well make a joke about how your pronouns are Real/Awesome and all the other stupid bullshit.
Well, at least this indicates that removing that text was not an accident or an oversight. And it is good to know where lemmy.world's admins actually stand.
That's a bad faith argument. The ToS also says to not engage in illegal activity. The admonishment of Nazi's and Pedophiles is an admonishment of illegal evil.
Your inclusion of Republicans is a bit of an extreme juxtaposition. Feel free to admonish the individual evil views of Republicans, but to discriminate against Republicans purely for their association is rightly against ToS.
