That could possibly be my fault, but I don’t apologize.
As the admin of the instance this community lives on, I’ve taken a hard-line stance against extremist rhetoric. I’ve probably banned close to 100 accounts in the last few days, possibly more, because they were directly advocating murder (this follows a similar ban-wave several months ago when similar rhetoric flared up). Digital lynch mobs are not the kind of demographic I want to platform here. Having run this instance for going on 2 years, I’ve found temp bans and dealing with individual submissions for that sort of thing to be ineffective.
I posted an updated Mission Statement yesterday that goes over this in more detail.
Sorry to reduce your audience, but I do hope you can understand why.
Edit: @meatcat@dubvee.org I hope you understand as well. If you’ve got concerns, please DM me and we can figure something out.
This post wasn’t referencing anything in particular. Just making an arbitrary connection to this joke from the show. But I appreciate the transparency!
I’m good with it. There’s a reason I rarely browse outside of “subscribed” which is mostly cats, 30 Rock, houseplants and music. Saw the meta post yesterday but was busy and didn’t have time to comment on it.

Ah, gotcha. Lol, the timing of it just made me wonder.
