People in Beehaw are nice (thank you all for that), but I am put off of the idea of reddit-like sites because of how toxic Reddit became (and also because of it lumping all USians as you-know-what), and when I select "All" for all lemmy instances in post view, it brings back bad memories of reddit.

I am very sorry if i anger anybody in Beehaw. this is also the reason why I am not active in beehaw.

I think it's less Reddit vs. anything, and just the basic fact that most humans are kind of stupid and prideful. That quickly turns into bigotry when other people seem to do something dumb en masse.

The same thing that has Republicans blaming black people for how bad "the hood" gets has Europeans et. al. blaming all Americans for Trump.

Humanity itself is just kindof a piece of shit, IMO...
