Yeah, it’s a pity that the laws appear to be protecting those the best, who are responsible for the most suffering - after all those have the power to get those laws written.
But that’s the thing: there’s a difference between ‘legal’ and ‘legitimate/true’ behaviour.
While I understand that lemmy instances (et al) have to adhere to legal behaviour, I hope that people adhere to legitimate/true behaviour.
Most people don’t just randomly stumble into legitimate/true behavior. We’re apes, we see something and then do. If it all gets moderated away, the chance for legitimate/true behavior drops dramatically.
I very much hope that action is the outcome of thorough consideration, although oftentimes I have doubts about that.
And still I think we have more up our sleeves than ‘monkey see, monkey do’ schemes.

Don’t forget that capitalism is what you get when you don’t regulate behavior.
Humans are shitty animals.
