'No bigots' should cover it, shouldn't it?

[–] houstoneulers@lemmy.world 13 points 6 hours ago (2 children)

That's weird. Does that mean they can't say "no rice or spice" anymore too?

Ah, so, no. Racism is fine still.

[–] turtlesareneat@discuss.online 2 points 6 hours ago

Or maybe the rampant drug use and sales?

[–] MetalMachine@feddit.nl 5 points 6 hours ago (2 children)

Not difficult to realize why when you realize who owns it along with many of the other dating apps.

All of them are owned by the same group of christofascists aren't they?

Don’t be antisymptomatic

This is such a weird stance for American companies and politicians. It truly blows my mind. You can say whatever you want about Americans or anything here. You can even say the president is a pedophile and it's fine (even if it wasn't true) but the second you say something bad about Israel because they suck everyone starts flipping their shit.

It's like our whole country is secretly run by Israel or something.

[–] Doomsider@lemmy.world 5 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Its like the ruling class of our country is being blackmailed by Israel.

FTFY

No. Well, maybe, but also much worse.

[–] multifariace@lemmy.world 11 points 6 hours ago

How is nobody calling out the fact that millions of Americans think that creating the State of Israel is supposed to fulfill their sadistic, hateful, apocolyptic prophecy fantasy of eternal punishment for people that dare to test their fickle faith. This is a large part of why this world sucks right now. Other than this simple quagmire, world control is about the almighty profit, but this is where these Americans will act counter to profit.

You think its weird America is fascist? Have you been paying attention to anything the past forever?

"no zyonists"

"no zi onists"

"no z10n15t5"

[–] brot@feddit.org 3 points 10 hours ago (2 children)

That's something that every company can easily detect.

[–] draughtcyclist@lemmy.world 4 points 5 hours ago

Yeah, but then they need to hire a guy to maintain the regex. And you could do something like "read every 3rd letter" and make that guy cry.

And yet Grindr never manages to filter out all the bots with "0NLYFANS" in their bios

[–] Awkwardparticle@programming.dev 3 points 9 hours ago

There is definitely not any sort of quid pro quo between those entities.

[–] RagingRobot@lemmy.world 6 points 10 hours ago

I bet they are fine if you say you support "settlers" though.

That term pisses me off so much. What human scum those people must be

[–] Keyboard@lemmy.world -4 points 5 hours ago

Grindr is from the Jews too?!?

[–] Afflictedlife@lemmy.ml 32 points 15 hours ago (3 children)

Looks like the community needs a foss alternative

[–] panosdev@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 6 hours ago

There's Alovoa. Unfortunately, last time I checked, there were not many people on there

[–] andros_rex@lemmy.world 5 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Tbh it’s been terrible lately. Free services increasingly go behind a paywall, they’ve limited how many convos you can have (invisibly, they just fall off), they show you fewer and fewer people.

The fediverse could be really useful in the dating space - capitalism means they never really want you to find The One, because then you might delete the app.

[–] Afflictedlife@lemmy.ml 1 points 7 hours ago

I'm thinking this could be a fedi instance a front-end app and a small subscription donation for paid moderation. Now if only I wasn't a brain damaged vibe coder with no idea where to start building out that idea

[–] Agrajag@scribe.disroot.org 18 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago) (1 children)

I think it could happen, but it would have to be a foss app and a paid service or funded by ads, because you need paid people to moderate services like that, moderation on lemmy is about civility and people being mean to eachother, but moderation on a dating app might involve dealing with sexual assault and other illegal things in a much more prominent way. Or it would have to be funded by a government or charity which is not very likely in the present.

Did Grindr get paid by the ADL or something? Either way it could be bypassed by just saying "no genocide apologists" lol

That makes it sound appealing though
