For the record I was posting in support of inclusive language, but pointing out that context and convention matter.
They seem to have even scrubbed my comment from their instance, lol.

I understand the reddit karma requirements, having seen too many small subs get swarmed by x day old but no or only negative karama but yeah that creator didn’t seem to want anything polite, just acceptable to status quo thinking
Karma requirements only punish people who have different thoughts and opinions and who are honest enough to not cheat by using bots or upvoting their own comments with alts. It’s not a good solution, it punishes people who are honest and don’t commit vote manipulation. It’s why the Lemmy Devs removed score from the API, it’s still possible to get it but it’s harder, and more effort since you have to get it from each comment and post and add them up.
