Also offensive: pointing out that English speakers do not use the word “American” to refer to people from Latin America. The term in our language is universally used to refer to people from the country America.

    Yeah at this point I’m just telling everyone posting an ML ban YDI. You know what kind of place ML is yet you keep interacting with them. The place is a cesspool of fascism apologia and censorship. Just block the instance and post somewhere actually worth posting.

      Ha, fair! I avoid posting in ML as much as possible because of how toxic the admins and mods are, but when someone else posts something interesting that I want to comment on, I do it. Especially in cases like this which at first seemed like they’d be uncontroversial and interesting conversation. Which, in fairness, it was until dessaline stepped in and brought the toxicity.
