Doesn’t matter, in a free country they can get offended by whatever they want, and still create communities with like-minded people that also find whatever offensive.
You are the one trying to control them by coming into the space they created and wishing to mold it to your own idea of how a space should be, instead of how they wanted it when they created it.
When you go to someone’s house, you play by their rules or you leave. You do not get to set the values in other people’s houses, and these Lemmy servers are literally just sitting in different people’s homes. Their house, their rules. In the case of .world, where this community is located, pretty sensitive. This is fine, they have that freedom to be sensitive about pixels if they wish.
Then shouldn’t the owner of the house be the one to make the decision? Not other guests?
I see no one calling for the removal of an existing trigger warning here. No changes to the status quo being requested. I see an asshole being a tool about someone making allusions that there should be a trigger warning.
Sorry to be pedantic. I’m generally supportive of your argument, but confused as shit because it doesn’t appear to apply here.
Frankly, so be it. Keeping the “mood” acceptable to certain sorts is no different from a mentally ill person being disturbed by “the mood” of suicide content. If you can’t handle that mood, that’s on you. It can be a legit threat to a vulnerable person though, and afaik this place takes that stuff seriously.

Great, that’s fine - and I’m allowed to make fun of them for it in that case.
But, just letting you know – it’s bringing the mood down. In a place that’s dedicated to laughter and humor.
We don’t need this hyper-offended guilt-olympics in this place. We get it, you’re a victim everywhere you go…but could you go do it somewhere else?
