A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Banning fascists is always a good thing however and fringe elements that promote fascists. You cannot tolerate the intolerable.
Who decides if someone is a fascist or not? That person will have a lot of power in theirs hands, and sooner or later they will abuse it.
The collective community has the power to defederate or move to another instance if you disagree with the rules in place
You mean like how Elon Musk owns Twitter now?
