A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions

Rules: (interactive)

1) Be nice and; have fun

Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them

2) All posts must end with a '?'

This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?

3) No spam

Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.

4) NSFW is okay, within reason

Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].

5) This is not a support community.

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

6) No US Politics.

Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online

Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Are you OK with slurs being used in irony or dark humor? (feddit.it)

this post contains slurs and mention of slurs, if you feel offended by them or fear to be triggered, please avoid this

The only people that i know that agreed to use them in dark humor or irony are either from my country, a similiar country to mine or straight up are the slurs victims, so i wonder...what do y'all think? If it's not a problem i'd like to know if you don't mind the use of slurs in a ironic way or dark humor context and where are you from and if you are one of the victim of the slur;

I want to underline that i mean only slurs in a IRONIC or DARK HUMOR context and not meant to harm.

Will i get banned?

Have you ever heard the internet wisdom about certain communities that are all about pretending to be X as a joke eventually just being overwhelmed by people who don't realise it's a joke?

Oh yeah, ofc, there is an Italian community on redsit that is all about pretending to be boomers or in general very old people trying to use reddit, some times you see posts of real boomers XD
