Longtime Lemmy Users: aside from sheer size, do you feel like the site has changed since the influx of reddit refugees, and if so, how? - Lemmy.world

I’ve not been here long, but I’m curious how users who were present before the reddit drama feel about any potential changes to the content and tone of discussions.

Lemmy.World has gained a lot more fascists. Seemingly not so much the case on the other instances. Maybe because beehaw defederated so they think that’s the place to be to troll lefties and liberals and organize? Uncertain but anecdotally it’s definitely happening.

Mods and admins need to get proactive. We’ve all seen what happens to places when the right invades - everyone else leaves, it descends into a chess pit, even the nazis leave, site dies.

Let’s not turn into voat.

The right has nothing to offer anyone who isn’t a giant bigot, these days. They have no positions beyond, “hurt the people who I say need hurting.”

There is no valuable discussion that can come out of talking to a right winger. At this point they are all Sartre’s antisemite.

In fact, including right wingers only strengthens left and liberal echo chambers because instead of discussing nuanced matters everyone jumps up to dunk on the Nazi.

Kill baby Hitler in his crib. Autoban right wingers before they destroy the fediverse.

The level of self-delusion lmao

Yeah I really hate the gender mythology ideological nonsense

case in point: this guy

I think you replied to my other comment. Nvm

So, you want to selectively pinpoint me now, just because I refuse to believe in your stupid tribal ideologies?

here's my honest advice:

try to learn to fly

And you should start tolerating people who think differently from you. Be a little open minded

i'd point out the hypocrisy but i know you don't care

so instead i'll suggest putting your hand in a blender and turning it on to own the libs

Wow, a violent threat from the person who goes around calling others fascists and nazis? You are in a cult man

And how exactly do you know I’m a nazi? Just because I didn’t blindly reciprocate you? That’s a very very weak argument

I’m not the other user, but the phrase “gender mythology ideological nonsense” is some Nazi-level transphobic shit. Cute of you to pretend like we all forgot about that line after just a few comments, though.

I never said I hate trans people. They are perfectly normal humans, and should allowed to live freely

But whether you like it or not, most of the gender ideology is utter nonsense/pseudoscience/mythology. It’s just made up bullcrap

I still don’t understand how all this relates to nazis. It’s like you use it as a swear word and have forgotten the underlying meaning

“I don’t hate trans people, I just believe Nazi-adjacent shit about “gender mythology ideological nonsense””

Whether you like it or not, calling something “utter nonsense/pseudoscience/mythology” and “made up bullcrap” doesn’t make it so. Just admit you don’t understand it. Not understanding something is perfectly fine, everyone has something they don’t understand. But if you’re going to insult the entire concept of gender identity because you can’t wrap your fragile little ego around it, be prepared to get called names because you are literally indistinguishable from transphobes.

Also the Nazis threw trans people in concentration camps, so yes, the comparison to Nazis is apt.

Putting it in a classic Richard Dawkins fashion… Come on, you are a man of the 21st century, you don’t need me to tell you that Diamoric changing into a Pomosexual overnight because he also happened to also be gender fluid, is a myth

Just because I despise the Christian ideology / Bible, doesn’t mean I despise Christians. Similarly, for most of the gender ideology and trans people

I never harmed or “threw trans people in concentration camps”. By your own logic I’m not a nazi

Diamoric changing into a Pomosexual overnight because he also happened to also be gender fluid, is a myth

What the fuck are you even talking about? Look, gender is a sociological construct distinct from sex, and people existing as a gender that doesn’t perfectly align with their biological sex has an anthropological basis going back millennia. I looked those words up, and they’re just…words people use to describe sexual orientations that don’t fit neatly onto the gender spectrum? Seriously, that’s what you’re upset over? Never mind the fact that those are extremely esoteric words that the vast majority of trans people are never going to use. What makes you think the mere existence of these words somehow invalidates all trans people?

Just because I despise the Christian ideology / Bible, doesn’t mean I despise Christians. Similarly, for most of the gender ideology and trans people

Trans people isn’t a religion, nor is it an “ideology” like you and other reactionaries keep trying to claim. Your constant attempt to compare it to religion or other ideologies makes it clear you’re trying to make the idea of transness as something that can be invalidated so you can pretend you hate the trans and not the person but no one is buying it.

Also you claim to despise Christianity but this is literally the exact same shit Christians use against gay people. “Hate the sin, not the sinner” bullshit and all that.

I never harmed or “threw trans people in concentration camps”. By your own logic I’m not a nazi

Nazis hated trans people, which was the point that you’re pretending to ignore. And as much as you want to claim you don’t hate trans people, it’s pretty obvious you’re desperately trying to make excuses to do exactly that.

Fuck off, Nazi.
