BarqsHasBite @lemmy.ca We just had probably the most consequential election of our life and you want to ban discussion? Jeezus.

46 19 ReplyBarqsHasBite @lemmy.ca ... And now you can't ask anything about politics. There's was doubtless going to be political questions to ask, and politic adjacent (where do I move) that will all be removed.
And you can't even ask about effects on the world either! Gaza, Ukraine, NATO, trade, tariffs, etc. Are those going to be removed? All valid questions, but sounds political to me.
Like way to shut down shit tons of conversation.

13 1 ReplyBarqsHasBite @lemmy.ca Seriously? You're this pedantic on the word discussion? Ok I will amend my first comment to:
We just had probably the most consequential election of our life and you want to ban
discussionquestions and the resulting discussion in the comments?Jeez all over again.
3 3 ReplyGrammarPolice @lemmy.world Most questions are "How screwed are we?, How did we fuck up this bad? Why are the Republicans so dumb?". Like, these aren't the types of questions this community was meant for bruv. And don't act like you don't know that.

10 1 ReplyLifeInMultipleChoice @lemmy.dbzer0.com It's not a book ban, the books just have to be approved before they can be brought in, and they haven't been approved, nor will they be.
3 2 ReplyUsernameblankface @lemmy.world It's not a book ban, it's one particular bookstore stopped distribution of that book. The bookstore next to it prominently advertises that it sells that book.
