I searched this morning for communities related to polyamory and open relationships. Finding nothing, I created something. If you are interested in polyamory, open relationships, ethical non-monogamy, etc, swing on by for a chat, to post something silly, as you will.

    I have a difficult time differentiating between active trolling and a lack of knowledge/ understanding. u/Moon appears to be leaning trollward. However calling someone stupid, or dumb is ableist or elitist. People have differing levels of cognitive capacity and education. And learning occurs over time, but not by the same linear path for each of us. Ultimately what I’m trying to say is education is better than ad hominem attacks. Also, don’t feed the trolls.

      To be fair, he called the troll’s comments dumb and stupid - not the troll itself. Which they were.

      Not sure about the troll, though. I have my suspicions. ;)

        Point taken. I’m not modding here. The accused troll seems to have not much to say. shrug Being in a new group always sets off neural response networks, various strategies emerge. Not all are successful.

          All good here mate. Like you, I want Lemmy to be a friendly place, but also one that values critical thinking and open mindedness. Y’know - the sort of shit we didn’t get on Reddit. ;)
