The community getting the worse trolling and attacks would exacerbate their moderators which in turn could result in severe, expeditive moderation.
Do you feel this might be happening ?

Avoid trans and vaccination topics on Lemmy if you don’t want downvotes. :)
I think it’s a good place for discussing surface level topics though. Memes, big tech behavior, etc. Things nobody gets upset about hearing.
I think a better framework might be, don’t be bigoted and don’t spread misinformation.
Bigot means:
“a prejudiced person who is intolerant of any opinions differing from his own”
This is exactly what we see on Lemmy when it comes to trans and vaccination topics. People are not tolerant of opinions different from their own.
Don’t try to “paradox of tolerance” this situation. Lol.
The solution is to not tolerate bigots.
You don’t see yourself as a bigot I guess? Just other people. :)
I do not see myself as a bigot, correct. I also don’t tolerate bigots.
I do my best to create non bigoted spaces by not tolerating bigots.
I recommend you take a look into what the paradox of tolerance is. It’s not too complicated of a subject in the scope of moral philosophy as a whole.

If you are interested in moral philosophy I could recommend a few books if you like.
We share that view then! I also don’t see myself as a bigot and I don’t tolerate them. So we shouldn’t waste each other’s time. :)
But you happily tolerate misinformation and bigotry. Don’t try to present that as a virtue.
