How so?
We're a non-sectarian socialist space, so communists and anarachists (i think mostly Marxisr-Leninists). Theres some variation because of that, but broad strokes we have agreement here.
oh ok, that explains it, I thought lemmy.ml was the center of that.
You might be thinking of lemmygrad.ml, which is a Marxist-Leninist instance, with which we are federated. We're majority ML, but are a non-secretarian leftist space, with much more shitposting and many endearing weirdos.
Until this moment I thought "lemmygrad" was just a nickname for lemmy.ml. See? Just trying to work out what the hell is going on in the fediverse.
The funny part of this whole exchange is that my original reply intended to mean "good luck getting Bernie elected" to whoever did that poll, which seems to be in line with the collective opinion, yet somehow we got here.
We get a lot of people wandering in here looking for an argument and we like to argue, often extremely aggressively. But we're also cool if other people are cool. Lurk around and see what the vibe is
That makes sense, I'll try to make the context of my comments more clear from here on. ty again
oh boy, I just realized this is a group of people who really like to argue. This is in the opposite direction of my 12-step program, but ok then.
Hexbears are generally a lot more hostile and assume good faith a lot less to accounts from other instances (understandable, but not necessarily justified, since federation has shaken things up, to say the least). Ime the two best ways to avoid this are to make an account here, though that's obviously inconvenient, or to add pronouns to your username.
Make sure you take care of yourself first, if you think posting here would have a negative effect on your recovery I’d rather you avoid this space. Good luck and I’m sending you good vibes to stay strong
