    It’s hateful bs, but it isn’t harmful. It’s a stupid take on a current talking point from the orange admin. It’s not picking on anyone. Wait for the actually harmful stuff, like misgendering people and racism and simply downvote this particular dumbass comment. (I’m going by the headline / subj, as I’m already exhausted from this week’s bullshit.)

      The kind of misinformation I posted a screenshot of (which btw is an actual “article” they’re spreading around) is how the groundwork gets laid for the “actually” harmful stuff, so in essence it is harmful because it will enable them to do far more harmful crap later. Or rather allow them to get away with it.

        Ok, but it’s also easily debunkable, and you can’t moderate away stupid. What they posted isn’t illegal misinformation according to EU law. I’d rather they do their misinformation in a community here than on Twitter or Truth Social.
