No, I don’t agree with how it was handled. I don’t know anything about the instance and their rules either. If you plan to have similar discussions, you should probably avoid the instance honestly. I personally hate saying the word toxic as a blanket word for everything. I also hate all the weird political lingo I’m not used to seeing elsewhere since jumping to Lemmy. It’s not my thing, and I avoid it other than maybe making fun of stuff in the news.
