Or do people think that Lemmy is a neutral, open-minded, safe community? Not like evil Reddit.
EDIT: Talking about mainstream instances like ml or world.
See examples of violent comments towards me and instead of mods removing their comments, they removed mine.
The comment that the all caps person was replying to was me saying that there are non-human targets. Users were assuming I want to kill people and turns out they are the ones that want to kill.
So, yeah, like everyone said .ml is horrific. Anyone I’ve blocked has been from there. I still haven’t blocked the instance and dont plant to. .world and every other instance I’ve seen is absolutely a left wing echo chamber. There isn’t really any conservative thought/speech here. Which is fine by me because I hear enough of that shit from my coworkers. It’s really just a scale of how far left/communist/anarchist/extremist they go. .ml is comprised almost exclusively of the lattermost but the rest are a mix. I’m a liberal so I don’t mind but I do recognize only one side has a seat at the table here.
That’s good to know. Best to be self-aware. I don’t mind the left-leaning either, but definitely not a space to have any productive conversation challenging left beliefs and opinions.
Correct
