It's like having a corporate seder for rosh hashanah or an eid al-Fitr: guaranteed to go badly.
Good point. Even if they stick within the "rules" the risk of it coming off poorly is too high, same as any cultural-specific holiday.

Damn Leftists. They ruined Leftism!
NIN is one of those rare bands where the live performances are often way better than the studio albums. Live or rehearsals. I think the live rehearsal version of The Collector is the best version of the song ever recorded and I will die on this hill.
Something I custom burned myself. Either a mix of ska/punk or an abridged version of The Fragile.
"The game allows me to do this, that means I'm not an asshole for doing this!" - Every griefer ever.
Task failed successfully.
Alright, this is one hell of a rollercoaster, far beyond anything I figured would be in play in a dispute over community moderation. And of course, of course it had to involve the guy who is rabidly defensive of Discovery. If anyone wasn't aware, that stance was in part what led to people leaving /r/StarTrek for /r/Star_Trek, the latter quickly turning into a brigading alt-right dumpsterfire that was eventually banned. They can't be blamed for the latter part obviously, but at the same time forcing Trek fans to choose between "no opinions we don't like" and "every opinion is valid including the super racist ones" is a dick move.
Of course the other reason for the schizm was Corgana banning anyone who even remotely questioned them in a stickied post about moderation changes.
Bottom line is that there's a track record of bad behavior from these folks that predates their transition to Lemmy.
Update: just logged in and this appears to be fixed now.
On top of everything else I didn't get any notification on the old subdomain that I had a reply. So that's broken too, yeah.
This was my preferred "backup" instance but I may need to use another at this rate.
Fuck yeah Mosquito Genocide crew!
Sterling and Yahtzee did a few literal road trips together even.
Guessing they used Sonarr, Radarr, qBittorrent, maybe an NZB client....
Would you look at that, I'm sophisticated now.
