And again in "The Menagerie"!

It says right in the meme "a lot of my masking is just making myself more palatable for other people"
Implying Spock is fictional

More mods and admins on Fedi need to step up and take bolder action, imo. Whether intentional or not, a mods inaction will often set the tone for a given community more than their actions.
Imagine the community you mod meets in person and someone is being obnoxious and disruptive. A new attendee is not going to speak up, they're going to look to you for guidance. If you allow unwelcoming behavior to persist, then attendees learn that being loud is how to get noticed, and if they don't want to be loud (as many of us don't) they'll just stop going.
I haven’t loved the post-Burn setting but the way this show is already contextualizing it, and the optimism it’s doing it with is already starting to change my mind.
Same. A lot of that stuff just feels more comfortable with time and I appreciate how Star Trek always pushes it a little bit. People FREAKED OUT with the Klingon changes in TMP/TNG. Then FREAKED OUT that DS9 was on a space station with a "politically correct" captain. Now we think of those things as normal, nostalgic even.
I liked it too, but I find rebuilding to be aspirational. Like maybe the most aspirational thing possible.
im absolutely calling it that from now on
Learning that the Lemmy.world team will capitulate to whatever it's loudest users want explains a LOT.
Even to save the persons life (as was portrayed in the episode)?
This. The way I see it, if an admin can't (or won't) moderate their users, the problem can only get worse.
Lemmy is just software that anyone can use. Each Lemmy instance with open sign ups has their own rules. But even so- there would be no way of knowing which Lemmy users are equivalent to any reddit user without the user itself making it known.
"Datalore" is another one that's important, but it's not very good. Most of the episode is Wesley running around trying to convince the grown-ups that Data is being weird and being ignored. It's the one where Picard tells him to "shut up".
