Notice of Explanation Regarding Acronyms It has come to our attention that certain acronyms are being used in a manner that is both antagonising and inflammatory. It is important to recognise that the issue lies not in the acronyms themselves or the validity of what they stand for, but in the derogatory context in which they are most commonly employed. For instance, the acronym "TDS," standing for "Trump Derangement Syndrome," is not a recognised medical condition but rather an urban phrase. It is frequently used as a means to belittle or mock individuals with differing political views. Such usage is inherently derogatory and contributes to a toxic conversational environment. We urge all members to refrain from using acronyms and phrases in a manner intended to deride or insult others. Instead, let’s strive for respectful dialogue that fosters understanding and constructive discussion. Thank you for your cooperation. We hope this explanation clarifies our stance on the appropriate use of acronyms within our community. Together, we can maintain a respectful and positive environment for everyone.
