No one is stopping them from saying their dumb hateful shit. We just don't want it here.
Why can't all you right wingers just yell at each other? We. Don't. Want. To. Hear. It.
You already have FB and Twitter and Reddit and all the truth socials. Go there.
I naively walked into Lemmy thinking it might be a friendlier respite from the echo chamber that is Reddit. I was wrong. From everything I've seen, it's just a more concentrated pit, where all people want to hear are their opinions repeated, plugging their senses from anything contrary.
I also wanted/hoped this would be a place where people wouldn't get downvoted and cast away just for stating different opinions. Nope. It's the same old emphasized emotional outrage, where you can't even offer a different take without a virtual lynching.
I don't want to see that from the left or right. Civility would be nice for a change...
Edit: I see the downvotes are starting. I guess I can soon expect to be attacked by weak expletive rage because my colors don't match the hive.
Amen.
