Hello, Im kind of new here and trying to get used to Lemmy and I was wondering about if this is true since I am considering donating on this site to support alternative projects but wanted to hear other users before doing so. That being said, what have been your experiences?

    But, clearly I wasn’t there and I didn’t know that you were criticising a drawing!

    Precisely, so let’s not assume things and speak in ways that try to pin it on me. “You should’ve apologized and backed down” is rewarding their shitty behavior.

    I get your point about avoiding generalizations, but I wouldn’t call it a category. This is a pattern of behavior from people who think they’re standing up for someone or something, but end up being straight-up toxic by taking social justice to extremes. I’ve even seen it in person, where some asshole crashed our LGBT+ community group because they started accusing another guy of saying something racist when it wasn’t the case. It was needless drama all around because someone decided to be the superhero and save imaginary people.
