Hmm, that’s a great point. It reminds me of fandom groups where most people are just trying to have fun and enjoy the fan content, but then a vocal group of unpleasant people will also designate themselves part of the fandom and damage its public image.
In that situation, the only thing that really seems to fix the public image of the group is having an authoritative leader (such as a creator of the original work, or a fandom conference organizer) making a public statement like “We do not condone persecution, we support the right to abortion, LGBT+ people are welcome at our fandom conference, etc”.
Tying back to the original topic, maybe the equivalent would be if well-known Christian leaders were to make statements like that?

Under a 10cm layer of water, the rest of the “pool” is a walk-in art exhibit. There are lots of photos in that link from both above and below the water. It’s a permanent exhibit in a Japanese museum of contemporary art.
How would you rate your coziness level on a scale of 1 to 10?
I’m relieved to hear you’ll still be running your instance despite these issues! Are you thinking of potentially moving the Literature Cafe forums to Sublinks?
I definitely hear you on the moderation difficulties… with the Fediverse being as far-reaching as it is, good moderation tools are essential and it seems like Lemmy simply doesn’t have these available.
