Yeah man the apps are tight and I still get the most important news. The community is the kinda weirdos I like - Linux nerds, oss purists, cutting edge. I haven't missed reddit in the last ~year of lemmy
I just don't get why people want to use social media for relentlessly spreading and talking about news or politics. I go online to escape reality / normies and their endless petty rage and negativity and self loathing. Is nowhere sacred?!
Kamala zealots and a heavy tankie presence.
I think you may be mistaking hatred of Trump with fervor for Harris.
I'm not thrilled with Harris, but if it's going to be between her and that orange shitstain, it's an easy choice.
Say anything about her less than favorable on news and politics subs and watch the downvotes.
That is not organic behaviour imho
Lemmy’s false positive rate on right wingers and their rhetoric is high but, as far as goal oriented ostracization goes, it’s fairly reasonable. I understand very well where it comes from. My friend has an extra kid on the way. Neither she nor her husband want the kid, but they’ve been turned away by several out of state doctors. (No, not Christian “medical” offices, actual doctors)
Congrats, republicans. You managed to funnel another kid into the foster system you also refuse to fund. Jfc
I've found that out. I started a Trump community today and I've already had to block two people! but I think Lemmy has room for some other voices than just lefty. i hope.
Yeah totally normal and hetero behavior check out my harris and biden communitie-- oh shit where are they?
I don’t think you’re gonna find much support on Lemmy for that. The kind of people on Lemmy are the kind of people that read books and tend to skew more to the intellectual side, even the ones I don’t agree with. Generally that doesn’t really describe Trump supporters.
There are other instances that align better with your views than lemmy.world
Of course, they're all defederated by most others, for good reason.
Trump is a fascist, and anyone in favor of Trump, too.
Goodluck, you will very likely get downvoted because there's a lot of lefties here but downvotes don't fuck your account up like they do on reddit so don't worry to much about them. Your posts will still showup and be seen.
Thank you!
While i dont supoort either puppet. We do need some trump idiots to balance this place out. Endless kamala shilling is tiring.
We had a guy try to run conservative sub it just got turned into him getting brigaded and abused. Not usre if thats still around.
But if people want to discuss their shiti politics in good faith, then fedi must be able to accommodate everyone if it is to become defacto internet front page.
Fuck reddit. Only decentralized social media makes sense since companies cant be trusted.
I did notice that the c/republican sub has no mod and that the c/conservative one seems to be filled with pro-democrats people who just downvote every post that's not pro-dem lol i think there's room for more voices. We'll see.
More power to you, maybe some closeted conservatives will come out. Pretty sure the linux subs got them lol
Either way. There is room for everybody and dnc zealots chasing people is annoying.
Hope so.
