Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.

Rules

1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

6. No linking to piracy

Don't share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.

We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

I think that dehumanizing other humans is something to be on the watch for. It doesn't make you a Nazi to wonder if you're also morally unsound

Nazis are human. Cruelty is all too human. The problem is, some people are completely beyond help, and will kill you just for existing, the first chance they get. You have to be ready if that happens, because it might happen sooner than you think.

Yeah, see the problem, echoed in nearly every philosophy in human history, is that you shouldn't enact vengeance (preventative or otherwise) because you might be wrong. It's the same reason the death penalty is immoral.

As much as I'd like to see some of these fucks at the end of a rope, that doesn't mean I will be making any blanket statements which assume I always know who the "bad" guys are.

You aren't dehumanizing anyone. Nazis did the dehumanizing themselves, who are you to object to that personal freedom of choice.

It's also important to keep in mind that intolerance cannot be fought off with tolerance. It's not possible. You have to not tolerate the intolerant.

Yes and you couldn't possibly be wrong about what a nazi is in a world where that term is thrown around more every day.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

I'm gonna say it's probably most likely the group of fascist filth who cheered when their unelected dictator UNMISTAKABLY seig heil saluted TWICE on stage on DAY FUCKING ONE of this fascist regime.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

What morals? You think I should have to play by some made up set of rules that the Nazis couldn't give two shits about?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

And this is the crux of the statement. Social contracts are group moral codes. The Nazis do not adhere to the terms of the contracts and thus are not protected by them.
