President Joe Biden has defended the right to free speech but says “order must prevail” on college campuses where pro-Palestinian protests are happening.
I want to be clear that I am being completely sincere when I ask, does this mean that saying “Joe Biden is acting like a fascist autocrat”, is ok, but applying it as a title, as in “Joe Biden the Fascist Autocrat” is not?
If so, I will hew to that distinction, but I want to be perfectly clear about the actual expectations; if the former is also an issue, I would like to know that now.
…does this mean that saying “Joe Biden is acting like a fascist autocrat”, is ok, but applying it as a title, as in “Joe Biden the Fascist Autocrat” is not?
In my opinion, yes. However, this is something that I would want to discuss with the other administrators/moderators in order to reach a conclusion.
You could’ve made an argument that the “fuck” part of “fascist fuck” was name calling and uncalled for… But your doubling down on the “fascist” part isn’t “be(e)-ing nice”, it is using a bully pulpit to push your own views and opinions.
Labeling Joe Biden as a ‘fascist’ is name-calling. Whether or not he is, truly, a fascist is not what is being addressed here.
Beehaw is a space that strives to be(e) nice apart from the thousands of Internet spaces that could care less.
