Just to clarify, I don’t think it’s a problem that hatred is minimal here, and I don’t just mean politics.
I feel like I very rarely see alternative opinions about anything, whether it be software, ai, news about companies, etc. it just seems like everyone universally agrees about anything with only a tiny handful of exceptions.
It makes me hesitant to believe I’m on the “correct side” and I never see any arguments from opposition. This makes me worried that I’m in some sort of echo chamber. In real life, I do see much more diverse opinions and, if I only used the fediverse for social media, would likely be weaker in defending my own since their arguments would be “new” to me.
I understand the reasons for which the fediverse has pretty collective opinion, but it does still worry me. I want to be able to see all the other people with their own thoughts (given it’s respectful) on the Internet, which should be the most capable tool to do so.
The opposing views amount to we should keep the orphan grinding machine for the sake of the orphans we grinded down before hand.
Simple and short, anything that doesn’t emancipate people to truly live freely without the oppressive boot of a select few is not an opinion worth arguing much less validating with said arguments. MAGAts are modern day Nazis. Neo-liberals coddle up with them to prevent progress against capitalism. Progressives have the right idea but typically aren’t as loud or angry about it as they ought to be. Fuck tankies.
