Do you think a community like r/TrueChristian or r/AskAChristian would be welcome on lemmy.world? (lemmy.world)

I don't know any true Christians who are MAGA or racists or even bigots. But with the commonly used definition that if someone says something is bad they automatically are seen as hating the people doing it many people arguing in communities like that would be called haters or bigots and possibly be banned here on lemmy.world. Even though most true Christians don't like MAGA and hardline rights they might feel the need to create communities like r/TrueChristian oad r/AskAChristian on exploding-heads.com or similar servers because they might think that their opinions are tolerated there. What do you think?

Great answer!

hateful = considered hateful by the immediate society. The speaker doesn't have to agree that it's hateful.

By "society" you mean the majority of people? And when the majority of people thinks something is wrong that gives them the right to cancel out a minority opinion just by calling it "hate"?

Some people think it's fine to abuse kids. Should we indulge their minority opinions too? If you don't think so, explain to me the difference.
