Good thing that what they are building is super transparent, open source and distributed. That critical post wasn’t even deleted.

As long as that remains the case, I’m happy that Lemmy is a place where you can find all kinds of views represented.

Oh yeah, I’m really happy that alt-right/ *ist/neonazi/etc views are represented.

So glad for diversity of bigotry!

Suppressing different views on a platform doesn’t make them go away, it only radicalises them. The only real, long term solution is debate and persuasion.

I remember a point of time not too long ago when the world didn’t tolerate this bullshit out in the open.

Guess what? We didn’t have the extreme issues we’re seeing now from these groups after allowing them to advertise over every legit platform.

So don’t feed me this shit that if we don’t give them a platform, that they will become a problem. They are a bloody fucking problem ** now** that we have.

Anger and bans and lack of discussion is exactly what fuels it. Let natural attrition happen and people will find common ground.

Can I naturally attrite my fists on a Nazi face? If yes I second your proposal, if not please stop with these bullshit points

Outside? Sure.

I wanna do it even here. It’s that ok with you or are you too much of a pussy to fight back even in a virtual space where there is close to no risk for you as an individual? Or maybe you don’t want to fight because you don’t dislike this ideology so much…

You mean argue? Yeah, that’s what I’m doing. Punching the screen? Feel free to do that, but I’ll pass.
