Did they consider not bumbling into a new community and post ignorant disinfo?
It takes <30 seconds to search a point in a search engine (or provide a prompt to an LLM I don’t judge) if they’ve proven they can’t do the bare minimum to make sure they’re adding to the discourse and not spreading fake news, than their value to the community is dubious at best.
So I forget, are you an ‘ignorant newcomer’ (your own words) or do you have your finger on the pulse of the community and its goals, and post disinfo anyway?
I didn’t know about anti-boycott laws. I posted in good faith. Now I know.
I don’t know specifics of this community but I seem to have a better grasp of community in general than you do.
You could have taken the opportunity to politely educate. Instead you’ve chosen maximum hostility. Why? What are you getting out of this? How is it better than kindness?
Yeah, I got a little heated, I guess everyone has their own line on what constitutes good faith, and that’s okay! Frankly I only know as much about US anti-boycott laws as I do because I work at a big soulless US corp.
I definitely don’t claim to be some elder of usboycott, and in fact dislike people who claim to have some kind of superiority for being established in a community
I just happen to be a random nerd on the internet that knows a strange amount about anti-boycott laws, who just dropped an edible and is feeling much more empathic,
Hopefully this can just go down as a lovely educational moment on the fediverse! And I hope you have a lovely day

If you believe in this community, you are undermining its goals by being this hostile.

Oh good. I’m glad we’ve made peace. I didn’t know about anti boycott laws, so I appreciate you bringing that to my attention.
I’m having a nice afternoon in the park. Hope your evening is just as pleasant.
