CustosliberaYour big brain conservtive/capitalist takes will be laughed at
TurboDieselLemmy isn’t “too extreme,” a very small subset of Lemmy users are just fucking insufferable.
…have these people met certain redditors? 🧐
I think it’s just a symptom of “people”.

News: People on the internet find out some people on the internet grinds their gears
funkajunkTune in at 6 to hear our top story: “Water, is it really wet?”. Findings from top scientist may surprise you. 🤔
I’m still figuring out if I can just straight up block people from certain servers
Only individually
Some apps let you block instances.
RozaŭtunoYou can with the next Lemmy update (devs say it’s coming in a month or so).
I mean, tankies are kinda worse.
Meh, both extremes are as insufferable
No, they aren’t.
Tankies are mostly just delusional victims of troll farms.
Fascists are… fascists.
Fascists are… also delusional victims of Russian troll farms.
Honestly I find it kinda mindblowing how similar lemmygrad and hexbear are to /r/t_d.
HB federated with SJW, a bunch of them raided two posts on SJW’s main and management communities, they started insulting the local users, calling them fascists and Nazis, they defederated by pretending they got insulted and called homophobic slurs and their admin called SJW “sh.itsfulla.chuds” and “sh.itholefor.nazis” without noticing the irony…
AtaraxiaThey’re trying their darndest to drag the left into the mud. They’re pushing the same rhetoric as trumpers trying to brainwash young people Jordan Peterson style.
The Russian government has a vested interest in destabilizing the US and trying to push people to violence and ‘revolt’ because that would take down the only threat to them. At least most of us aren’t so stupid to believe these people are in any way representing the left, the LGBT or minorities. I was looking for an LGBT friendly community and was so saddened to find out what it really was… trying to radicalize vulnerable groups. Shame on them. Fucking shame.
One is obnoxious, the other actively genocidal.
Considering them equally bad is a self report.
So we’re just pretending genocides weren’t committed by both sides?
So we’re just pretending they’re literally Stalin’s reanimated corpse, and that they’re genocide supporters instead of deniers?
If you deny the atrocities committed by someone then yes, you’re supporting them and their choices.
It means you either don’t believe the accusation or are lying about not believing it, one is support and the other is denial, and quite frankly I think they’re mostly dumb enough to not believe them.
Which side isn’t genocidal?
No, I ment exactly what I said:
www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/insufferable
We were federated with them for a couple of days and their constant spam of insults and images makes them insufferable.
Fine, you find obnoxious dorks just as bad as genocidal fascists. I stand corrected.
From a governmental point of view, both extremes are responsible for multiple genocides so I’m not even sure which is which in your comment 🤔
And I’m talking about Lemmy’s tankies vs Reddit’s alt-right, since that’s what the conversation was about in the first place.
I actually hope more middle ground right leaning people migrate.
NO. Fuck them.
Maybe not, maybe your a problem because you exclude people like that.
There are no “middle ground right-leaning” people. They either support fascism or they don’t. Right-leaning is fascism now, PERIOD. If it werent then fascism would have never taken power.
What, are you gonna Susan Collins everyone now? Did the orange guy “finally learn his lesson” and now we can enact his policies with a clear conscience?
Untio fascism is eradicated and all corporate power removed from government, we DO NOT NEGOTIATE WITH TERRORISTS.
Disagree entirely with that. There’s propaganda on all sides and there’s things that we’re all fucked up on. Hate to do the both sides things but I think its realistic that both sides are being driven to extremes and we should fight that and recognize
Imagine being braindead to the point of thinking “people should have as many rights as possible” and “people I dislike should die” are in some way similar. That’s why rightwingers don’t belong in society.
Imagine being a fucking idiot ?
Rightwingers don’t need to imagine it :)
What are some extreme positions on the left and who is the representative pushing for them?
Stalin was a swell guy / lemmygrad
Do you know what a representative is
Missed that word, sorry.
Okay good, as long as you’re sure.
Oh I feel much better now that you can’t name one.
By comparison, can you name any representatives who are pushing radical fascist extremes?
If by left you mean tankies, which are just fascists posing as leftists, then violence against liberals or anyone who doesn’t subscribe to their ccp/russia/nk bs…
Do any of you know what a representative is?
America moment
Even for the US this is insanely out of touch. But it is kind of sad that one of the main reddit alternatives is even more US-centric than reddit.
Biden? Biden is middle ground right leaning.
It’s wild how many Dems are trying to tell us that he’s the most radically progressive President in modern history while we have so much footage of him in the Senate espousing radical fascist views on social policy
tocopherolYes, I GLADLY exclude people that can’t decide if me and my friends should exist.
…libs?
Lol yea maybe they’re just more libs
lol fat chance, keep dreaming idiot
See its this shit that drives me nuts.
How did you get so hateful. Same bafflement I get with hard right wing people. I figure its the same forces being applied
P4ulin_KbanaYou have my respect.
We call this the “Centrist pull” to get people to the right.
It’s like the carnival of flaming demon knife throwers insisting that throwing flaming chainsaws at your family every day is “extremism”, and just throwing knives at them is normal.
Why are people downvoting this? We know that’s necessary.
