Can we please not have silly jokes on a serious topic like global hunger?
This is one thing I don't want from reddit
It may sound silly but it's put succinctly and there's an element of grim truth to it.
Additionally, do we have to compare everything to Reddit? It's the Internet, people are going to cope how they cope.
Yeah but it's in bad taste.
Bad taste is when people draw attention away from the actual issues and towards making sure the language is sufficiently inoffensive and mild enough for their delicate sensibilities. This is one of the worst traits that the Fediverse has developed.
