Piper ThunstromAdvice for community managers:
Use the Olivia Hill rule.
It's surprisingly easy to enforce:
Fascists get really upset and will talk to you about why the rule is bad.
You then ban them.
That's it, that's all the work it takes!
Proto Himbo European@pathunstrom it's a great rule. It relies on having a very accurate fascist detector. Luckily, in many situations the fascists self-identity.
fear is not a Weltanschauung@guyjantic @pathunstrom
there's no detector more accurate than some rot-scrote's internal "I feel threatened by seeing people potentially creating spaces that may not be designed explicitly with my unrestricted comfort and freedom in mind" alarm going off.

@wouldinotcallmyselfahumanbeing @pathunstrom I know this is not necessarily a Fully Official Policy discussion, but... how do you know the rot-scrote's internal dialogue? Now we need an internal dialogue detector, too.
@guyjantic That's the Olivia Hill rule. If one feels an uncontrollable urge to "well actually" when one sees a space applying it, it's because one immediately feels instinctively threatened that the space may one day place some restriction on one's personal comfort and freedom to toot some edgy fascist-adjacent 'just asking questions' rhetoric. It's like you said, they self-identify. they cab'f help it.
