And yes, I know people will say block keywords and communities, but people don't understand some communities have rules and people must follow them.

Your comment was a pain to read. Am I understanding correctly that you're mostly repeating yourself and ignoring my point about your false dichotomy?

Nobody here is saying we need to invade /c/cutepicsofpuppies with Donald Trump is Bad posts. You're saying "Get Politics off my Lemmy." I'm saying somewhere in the middle is best.

Again you accuse me of what you yourself are doing. This is a post about not putting political things in communities that have a rule "no politics." It's absolutely about invading c/cutepicsofpuppies with Trump is bad posts, and instead putting it in one of the many political lemmy communities where that shit actually belongs. You inventing this "no politics on lemmy at all" strawman is all you. What sidebar do you think the rule is in if not lemmy's ffs.

So to catch you up to speed, ignoring the rules in a lemmy comm's sidebar and posting politics where it says "no politics" does absolutely fuck all to deal with the "echo chambers" of which you speak. C/cutedogpics is not an echo chamber and therefore posting Trump bad there is simply breaking community rules to annoy people here already. If you actually want to affect those in the echo chambers of which you speak, then yes, you have to go there. Those people aren't on TrumpSocial, Rumble, Twitter, and Threads and also only c/cutedogpics on lemmy, they're not here at all.

You're the one with the false equivalencies, saying that "don't post politics to lemmy comms that say no politics" equates to an echo chamber, then you say "if you want to affect those actually in an echo chamber you have to go to that echo chamber" is me saying "get politics off lemmy entirely." It's honestly laughable, I can't tell if you're sincerely misunderstanding the concept that hard or if you're maliciously misunderstanding it, but either way it's pathetic.
