I still haven’t forgiven them for canceling “Kaos”.

Thank you for letting me know it’s fake. I’ve never heard of it before, and I was wondering how it turned out lol

They do it to protect their feelings. They’ve normalized the use of something most people hate, so they want everyone else to adopt it, too. That way, they won’t feel judged, when they 100% deserve to feel judged.

I very rarely use the downvote arrow, because I know it upsets people. “Why” doesn’t matter to me. Lemmy is (mostly) a friendly place, and I want it to stay that way.

I had hoped

It has the same rights that every other culture/religion does.

I don’t want ANYONE to die. I don’t think Israel should be allowed to bully its neighbors, flout international law, and commit genocide. A phrase has been co-opted by people we don’t agree with. So what. It doesn’t mean they control language and the meaning of words.

A subtle but important distinction. Thank you for adding it.
