    ["bro" is] often used either to diminish what someone says or as a false slow of friendship

    As petty and lame the warning and ban was, I can't exactly argue with this statement. I can understand where that's coming from. It's not true for me personally, but I bet it is with others. šŸ˜†

    Either way, that's such a basic word that we can't ban its use, come on bro...

                I really don't think that a weird DM from 1 person in 1 comm on piefed counts as "The fediverse."

                I mean, don't we still have The Fediverse Chick? What ever happened with that? She totally undoes, like, 7 weird DMs like this.

                  sensitive snowflake, what are the chances he ones of the political extremes. if this was reddit, the person making an unsoliciated messaged wouldve been banned, or both because reddit has a very aggressive AI moderation system, plus thier spam/bot filters are easily triggered by any number of things, this would severely reduce the number of users on Lemmy if they had this.

                    He is right, though. He politely asked you to avoid some language at his channel. Why would you downvote that comment?

                    Downvotes for disagreements were part of the downfall of reddit.

                      Even 'dude' is shifting towards gender neutral.

                      As with all of these kinds of discussions, context is key. Getting offended at the mere sight of the word 'bro'? Go suck a dick. Using 'bro' spitefully to misgender someone? Also go suck a dick.

                      I've considered dude gender neutral since 2010-ish, it's just a "hello person I don't feel like specifying for"

                            As a woman who works with men, "bro" and "man" (thanks, man) seem to signify comradarie that I don't receive. It's not a big enough deal to bring up in the workplace, but I associate it with feeling left out and it makes me sad sometimes. Since you asked.

                            If it makes you feel any better, I don't think those words used in those context are gender specific, that is to say I would totally say "thanks, man" to a woman without batting an eye, and I assume people who use bro would do the same. I know feelings are extremely personal, and if it makes you feel bad it's unlikely to change because some random person online said something, but in my head "thanks, man" is just a construct used to imply comradrie, it has nothing to do with the gender of the word, just like how "see you later, alligator" doesn't exclude human beings.

                                        Bro is gonna be a preemptive block. No reason to engage with people like that at all.

                                          I feel like was pretty obvious that "Bro." here was used as an interjection, rather than calling atomicpoet a "bro".
