I've been seeing some concerning trends whereby anti-vaxx posts are defended as "free speech" and a growing number of users with "Trump Won" sentiments.

Is there going to be a stance taken on this? Or are we going to lose this community, like so many others, to propaganda and hatred?

Personally I feel nutomic is somewhat right and wants to keep the cautionary tale in mind and in vision, whereas dessalines knows the balance.

I can guide these people with my experience if needed (and as I have done in helping shape Lemmy). It is not hard to identify the issues if you can make sense of the chaos and have your moral compass functioning well.

BTW it is leftist, not liberal

I know, about the leftist correction, I was making a commentary on how liberal it is to allow an Anti-vaxx mandate discussion as if it's not a thinly cloaked excuse to legitimize sharing a substantial amount of vaccine misinformaiton.

I think when we start allowing bad-faith efforts to hide worse things we open the door for all of the same sad excuses that lead to the failings of voat, mewe, gab, and literally everything else that started to get away from that shit, and it just fills on in anyway.

Yeah I know that, I will put myself on the frontlines as much as possible to keep this platform healthy. Lemmy is probably the last hope and is THE forum platform to replace Reddit going public by March, and the push is needed highly. We need this platform to stay sane and just open enough at the same time. Careful balancing act.
