What part of this is pleasant?

It’s my first time here. I figured it was ironic.

This sub is doomed from inception.

Very few political issues are also pleasant.

This community has a bot that scans all of Lemmy and preemptively bans trolls and people who receive a lot of down votes consistently. The pleasant part is supposed to refer to the people who are allowed here, not the topics themselves. It's designed to foster more constructive and less hostile comments.

Also @ekZepp@lemmy.world and @Bubs12@lemm.ee

And conservatives think they aren't getting laid now

"Let's make it so that if something happens with condoms or birth control (assuming birth control is still legal) women are stuck with a baby because there is no more plan b or abortions. That'll make them love us! They'll have to marry us if they want to bang, then they can't leave us so we'll get to bang every night!"
