Dating a blind girl
All of her friends are blind
Love that she holds my arm when we’re out
Love that she eventually got used to my apartment and can now navigate around by herself
Love that her guide dog is super friendly and is always on the job to help her.
Love that her family sees me as a great person because her being blind doesn’t bother me
Love that she doesn’t use the internet because it’s too much hassle
Love that she requests I read new books for her in my voice and record them so she has her own boyfriend audiobook library.
What’d the parent comment say?
Did it break rules?
You can check the modlog. The reason given is “automod,” which seems quite bizarre to me, especially given that there are no objectionable keywords in the comment, and that it was removed 2 hours after it was made.
“Blind” is ableist language, the preferred term is unsighted
If you use it as a noun to describe such a person, sure, but as an adjective it’s perfectly acceptable and much more natural.
I’m just joking
I hoped as much.
I didn’t remove it; the instance admins (the modlog says “automod”) did. They also got permanently banned from sh.itjust.works, apparently. I personally don’t think it was that bad - it sounds more like misunderstanding or ignorance than intent to cause offense. You’re welcome to look at the modlog to see what it said
? It’s still up for me on boost
Maybe Boost doesn’t display that it’s been removed? When a comment is removed, Lemmy stills sends the content of the comment to the frontend - it’s up to your client to not display the content. The comment is definitely gone on the website frontend.
