I might get hate because of my instance here, but in an attempt to better understand Lemmy I’m wondering if some of you can shed a light on why you chose this instance, what’s great about it, what could be better, is the instance rivalries something that affects your use of the platform or is it just background noise?

I’m not trying to start a fight or mud slinging, it would be good if several people could say their piece and nobody shame or attack them for it no matter how much you disagree.

    Oh it's the account upset people don't like politicians okay with genocide while also saying they know nothing about Israel or Palestine.

    And of course world just locked the post the op did there with the similar question. Weird how only the one against free speech didn't lock it 🤔

    lol, just now noticed them saying shit like "This is a rather neurodivergent absolutist approach hoping for a utopia any smart person know is not achieved within the parameters of today’s power structure." and "You don’t even need a tinfoil hat to see that if .ml is indeed russian made, trump is a russian plant (buy russian oil), then it all makes perfect sense." and basically accusing all of .ml being Russian bots and/or paid actors because some of us are extremely opposed to voting? There's a difference between having a discussion about the effectiveness of voting in helping to stop the genocide in Palestine, and starting to throw about dehumanizing shit and baseless accusations.

    edit: oh yeah, and:

    I understand this viewpoint. I think it’s less an opinion and more a neurological condition

    yes, because we are all autistic and stupid we can't see that the entire instance is controlled by the russians who put Trump in power, and all of this is evidenced by the actions of the mod of a single community and a few strong words, and by the fact some of our users refuse to participate in bourgeois elections in the imperial core. nice.

    What the fuck is wrong with that user? Or I guess I should have expected ableism from a lib... just like the rampant homophobia or racism (it's against the right targets after all!!)
