Wow, the situation with @Raspberry_Pi@raspberrypi.social *is* pretty bad.
Just see the screenshots, they are treating the community poorly.
I was even blocked sometime earlier for being upset about the softcore(?) pornography they posted earlier.
Ok, wow. That was worse than I thought. Some people were actually kind and rational, and the "person" acted like a total prat. :(
I hadn't seen those interactions before, just mainly the screaming ACAB ones.
@RL_Dane I mean Raspberry_Pi does like to delete people's replies when they dissent. (I would know.)
Really? Happened to you before today? Man, what did you say that they could possibly stake umbrage at??
@RL_Dane I think this was my only reply: https://social.librem.one/@golemwire/109350754047874586
The second/last post in the chain is mostly uppercase though....
Eww. Not classy. But not porn. Everyone's fully clothed. Maybe not *tastefully* clothed, but clothed.
Supposedly, there are gyms that teach pole dancing (fully clothed) because it's supposed to be a great workout.
I can imagine.
Hard pass.
@RL_Dane I mean maybe it isn't 'technically porn' in the sense they technically have clothing, but as I understand the word any media that is supposed to be erotic is porn.
@RL_Dane Maybe I should be calling what Raspberry_Pi posted "softcore porn"
That's definitely a broader category; I think that'd fit.
I'm not as keen on the word, "erotic," as it doesn't technically have to be fleshly to be erotic. I mean, it generally is; I'm not trying to pull the wool over your eyes.
But the meaning of the word is pretty nuanced. It can have more to do with emotion than lust.

"Eros" is a complex topic. The way the Greeks used the word isn't exactly the same as the way we use "erotic."
Eros was one of the Greek gods, so although it is a fleshly subject overall, there's also a certain kind of reverence. It's interesting. I highly recommend perusing some of the Platonic dialogues. As philosophy goes, they're really quite approachable.
