I disagree with the instance’s philosophy. I think “be nice” leads to a lot of unintended consequences and echo chambering. Edit to add: One of the Seven Tenets of The Satanic Temple is: “The freedoms of others should be respected, including the freedom to offend. To willfully and unjustly encroach upon the freedoms of another is to forgo one’s own.”. I don’t go out of my way to troll; however, I feel that Beehaw’s instance philosophy does not align with the idea that we have the freedom to offend with our own opinions.
Conversely, I am not LGBTQ+ and I don’t need to be in their space. They get to deal with normies all the time in everyday life.
