Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

World is mostly usanian, it's being used to drive people away from the class war ml advocates. Can't get the billionaires if you're fighting with each other. In that regard world is the billionaire's tool, because it pushes people towards culture and identity wars instead of class war. ml being mostly European, has a different overton window, which clashes with World because anything that sounds like socialized healthcare for all, or the invasion of Iraq was wrong, is branded as tankie rethoric.
I don't take anybody who uses the word "USian" seriously.
YDY
Find me a single user on lemmy.world upvoted for defending the invasion of Iraq or calling for the end of/opposing socialised healthcare
I am sure there is, but they don't represent everyone. That is the cool thing about World. It is okay to have differing opinions.
I think it is possible, but highly unlikely in this context.
LW is also European, look it up (despite that, it does attempt to cater towards the desires of former Redditors though, that much is true).
Gut zu wissen
Es ist tatsächlich so.
