Did you all notice that week or so of utter shock from federated Lemmy liberals when they saw takes to the left of themselves?
(hexbear.net)
I don't just mean outrage or regular rage, I mean shock that someone was to the left of "legal weed and free college but only for those that operate a successful business for 3 years in a disadvantaged community" 
takes.
I think federating took them by surprise, looking back. For about a week, those smug liberals were at a loss to even fathom what Hexbears were saying, and could only chant bullshit about how we're Russian/Chinese bots.
Sure they still do that but they've slightly adapted to Hexbear presence.
Yeah the same is true for me being anti-car. When I first heard of European congestion taxes when I was car-brained I was like "that is literally insane, how are you going to restrict poor people's right to get into the city". But after learning about other forms of transit and the fact that it's affordable and cheap and objectively better than private vehicles, I realized that just realizing that other transit options exist makes me move further 'left' lol.
