      Yes. And each time, those who voted against such things get counted. Sadly, nothing happens. Sadly, we live in a post-consequence society.

        We aren’t even allowed to talk about consequences on most Lemmy instances.

          Most? I can think of ml and maybe hexbear, but anywhere else I’ve never seen any problems talking about it. Come to .zip, we’re pretty open and chill.
