Murdered by Words

Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.

The following things are not grounds for murder:

Rules:

  1. Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
  2. Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
  3. No bigotry of any kind.
  4. Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
  5. If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
  6. Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

Yeah, took me awhile to adjust from reddit where the default is sarcasm. You gotta remember where you are, neurodivergency abounds on the Fediverse.

I'm pretty new here personally and I feel way more comfortable in two weeks than I did in 12 years on Reddit.

I feel much the same way and have been here quite a while now. And just in case you haven't read it yet: welcome to Lemmy.
