I for one have stopped posting any content to lemmy.ml communities.

  • My last straw was when I made a meme on their meme instance that had no Asians, anyone related to Asia, or racism in it. And they removed the post with 500+ up votes and a healthy discussion, because my title was “Rice.”

    They literally told me rice, the word by itself, is racist. I just chose a random word for the title to fill the blank.

      You didn’t choose a random word. It’s obvious why you chose that specific word in reference to gaming hardware. And we know the racist roots of the term.
