EDIT : [email protected] has been created . The /c/ will also work as suicide watch. It was @[email protected] 's idea to change the /c/ to include lonely people more .

I have been wondering why lemmy has nothing that is active and modded (which is bad for a /c/ like that ) . But i don't wanna have any fall back from the law as i am quite brock atm so is there any such risk ? I am proposing this idea and will only carry on according to what majority thinks .

EDIT: Edited a bit which may have been misleading and because one user draw my attention it do reread if you have read the post before so you don't get any wrong idea.

We censor the word, same as everything else that has trigger potential, to not trigger people. Since you study psychology, you will know why thats bad. I‘m only studying it for fun, not „studying“ it.

Nah you know if a kids parent told him never to say gay as it is a bad thing and should never think about it and all the feelings are in his head and it will go away eventually that creates a negative feeling now replace the word gay with suicide . I am really really sure this is a very real consequence if you do that.

Edited some misleading bits
