    Let this be a lesson to you all: If you report a post for a reason as stupid as this, I might just let everyone know so they can laugh about it.

    P.S. This is Lemmy Shitpost. You can misinform people all you like. Watch: Some camels are actually a type of iguana. But only the Bactrian camels. The rest are types of cacti. And if you drink their saliva, it will cure your gout.

      Just want to pitch in and clarify the misinformation topic, since this is something explicitly mentioned in the Lemmy.World TOS, section 8.

      Specifically, the type of misinformation that is prohibited is that which is harmful to others. Here’s a direct quote that pretty much sums up the matter:

      We DO reserve the right to remove any information posted which COULD cause imminent PHYSICAL harm to any living being

      We also reserve the right to remove any sufficiently scientifically proven MALICIOUS information posted which a user may follow, which would result in either IMMINENT PHYSICAL harm to an INDIVIDUALS PROPERTY, the PROPERTY of OTHERS or OTHER LIVING BEINGS.

      So that being said, you’re all free to talk all the shit you want. I’m only going to care if the shit you talk is actually harmful.

      OPs shit is in no way demonstrably harmful to anyone in any relevant manner. So they get to keep talking it.

      Edit: I’ll concede, you may be put in harms way if you try to drink camel saliva. I presume they kick pretty hard. But frankly, you deserve it for trying.

      Do I need to drink the saliva fresh from the camel’s mouth, or can I have it bottled and shipped to me?
