    But you are just assuming, you have no proof of this kind of posts on c/christians. They were not banned because of content, but because of not allowing pro LGBTQ+ content. Please read the linked post first. (https://lemmy.world/post/1762563)

    I am not saying that the community should be banned, I am just saying that if the c/christians were banned just for not allowing LGBTQ+ content, then applying the same standards this one should be banned as well.

    And hate speech is incredible volatile definition, it seems like everyone is using it how they feel like.

    If you are so insecure about your sexual identity that you can’t handle some dumb kid posting funny images on the internet, then you probably need to rethink some of the choices you made in life.

    If it’s more than just dumb memes, actually harassment or targeted hated, then take it up with the admins.

    No reason for hostility.

    a) by the same point I would disagree with a community that is making religious people unwelcome. I am only advocating for applying the same standards across the board.

    b) Well you came exactly to my point, no they should not be banned!

    If that was the case I would agree with you. But it's not what they were banned for, they were banned for not allowing LGBTQ+ content on their community.

    Some people are brought up since childhood in religious environments, and for all they know they are Christians. They didn't really chose to be one.

    The same way I don't want LGBTQ+ people to not feel welcome, I do not want religious people to not feel welcome, just because they were born in such an environment.

    Care to explain why is it a false equivalence?

    And yes people can still be atheists but stand for the right of freedom of religious expression. The same way someone who is straight can stand for the right of free sexual orientation.

  • After the ban of the c/christians community for having a rule against LGBTQ+ content. I wonder where is the actual line of what is allowed and what is not on this instance. (https://lemmy.world/post/1762563) There are plenty of instances allowing hate speech against religious people. Looking through them I can see how they can be pretty offensive for someone who was brought up religious. For example [!atheistmemes@lemmy.world](https://lemmy.world/c/atheistmemes). From their description > No Pro-Religious or Anti-Atheist Content. Some of the content: - https://lemmy.world/post/1783216 - https://lemmy.world/post/1766629 - https://lemmy.world/post/1591110 - https://lemmy.world/post/1585721 To clarify, I do not feel offended, as I am in no capacity religious and I am an atheist also. I also do not ask for the removal of that community as I don't believe neither of the two should be removed. But going through the content on atheistmemes the content there is far worse and more offending than it was on c/christians. While on c/christians only the rules where marginally breaking the rules, while there were no content that was in violation. This community in my opinion does both. Allowing anti religion community while banning the pro religion one is creating a real deficit of different opinions here. What is your opinion? Do you think that one should be allowed while the other not and why?
