soviettatersI've noticed that lemmy as a whole is much more leftist than reddit (outside of political servers of course)
Reality has a well known left leaning bias.
Conservatives and their politics do not have equal status. In this climate, “both sides” is toxic and suggest each is equally supported and viable. They are not. The right is an incredibly hateful minority end should be treated as such.
And comments like this show that the left is just as hateful. With the usual “agree with me or your are racist…” or someother bullshit spiel.
Did someone say agree with me or you’re racist? I didn’t see that anywhere. All I saw was calling a goose a goose, or in this case, a fascist party fascists.
Calling the right leaning crowd a hateful minority while ignoring the fact that the left leaning side does the same is hypocritical.
Mirros don’t work where he lives.
irkliNo there are not “two sides”. The right wing is a fkn minority. The rest of us want to carry on with our lives. Left center and some conservative. Bigots wanna bigot.
Someone saying that right-wingers are hateful bigots is now somehow the same as declaring trans people universally pedophiles, refusing them medical treatment, and openly advocating for their extermination.
Yes, the conservatives in the “west” have started calling for a cleansing of Trans people out of society, but I guess Holocaust 2 electric boogaloo (and yes I am very consciously using that because the Turfs are now openly working together with Neo-Nazis to the aims of removing the “evil manipulative group trying to destroy our culture/race/sexual orientation”) is equivalent to someone saying bad words bad that conservative group…
I wasn’t aware that things in america have gotten that bad. I always heard that people have been divided, but it’s really eye opening to see just how much. What can be done to combat extremist views?

What’re you gonna do? Kill some more women and gay people about it?
No, we just no longer feel the need to tolerate you. You do not adhere to our (pretty fucking simple) philosophy of leaving people be unless a crime has been committed. That’s all tolerance is. You dont need to ask questions. You dont have to remember a list of strawman pronouns. You just have to mind your fuckin’ business. The fed isn’t going to coddle you like reddit did. We want you the fuck out. Fuck off back to EH with the rest of the question askers.
You seem to be assuming a lot of things. I only called out the hypocracy of calling out the things the “right” is doing, but willfully ignoring what the “left” is doing.
And you seem to be very aggressive, where there is no need to be. I do however agree with you on people needing to mind their own business. That would be the simplest thing. If you want to preach intolerance then go ahead. But people are becoming so damn polarized that it’s difficult to remain in the centre without being accused of going to either side of the spectrum. You do realize that being a centrist is a thing, yes? You do realize that one does not necessairily need to align with either the left or the right side of the political spectrum, yeah? You can kindly fuck off yourself.
The right! Leaving people alone! Lol! Lefties want “treat every one well” and the right passes law after law removing rights from specific lists of people, starting with those they seem as politically weakest (trans, gay, poor, black). The party of “small government” sure wants a lot of social control laws.
And yes explicitly, lefties want to remove any “right” to treat people “you don’t categorically like” badly.
Fuck the right wing, seriously wtf.
Stop being mean to everyone. Then no one would care about you at all.
Let’s also not forget that the hate is justified and amplified by their religion.
well the right thinks anything that makes you not exactly like them is a crime. Therefore they do adhere?
Carighan MaconarAnd funnily enough, these bigots nearly always hail from “the land of the free”. Where “free” apparently only applies to their own ability to freely attack others and try restrict their freedom.
I suppose the downvotes didn’t actually click the link. 😅
Wow. Way to paint everyone with a different thought process the same. Very human of you.
Now you’ve convinced me! I really ought to have been the bigger man when my mom called me in the middle of the night to tell me that Trump’s a martyr like Jesus and that the Democrats are performing demonic baby-eating rituals inside underground tunnels, and just let her keep screaming about me being a brainwashed woke communist because we just have little differences and we all need to get along.
Haha, nope. I want scorched earth on every one of those conspiracy nut fuckers holding right-wing parties around the balls, since they went after my family with their brainrot. I don’t give a shit that a handful of people exist who don’t explicitly support Jewish Space Laser Marge or Venmo Bribes Clarence, because y’all still vote lock step to keep these crazy loons around because Roe v. Wade is worth killing for $300 extra on next tear’s tax return.

Gonna have to take any political and moral position you have with a grain of salt, since crazy runs in the family
That doesn’t make sense and you know it. It’s stupid and vindictive.
Is it miserable?
Having your entire identity based on a political team?
Constantly being angry and thinking the worst about your peers?
Because it SOUNDS miserable.
Probably not as miserable as it is to have to spend all your energy pretending to not see how your political ideas have fully doomed humanity to drive itself extinct

Historical_GeneralI’d say it’s mainstream media-type liberal bias. Inclusive aesthetically, and occasionally sincerely too, but mostly shit.
