The more I use lemmy, the more it begins to just feel like all the same problems reddit had. It has the same problems with major communities having far left moderation standards that only apply to the right, the same hive mind users that just spam the same tired out leftist talking points over and over while refusing anything close to an actual discussion.
The only upsides are that downvotes aren’t used to punish you site wide, and the handful of non-leftist instances that exist, though they always end up defederated by all the major instances, effectively making them poor spaces for general discussion.
So what are your thoughts? Is this just the “more like under new management” from megamind? Is there hope for it to become a decent platform for everyone, not just the left?
Edit: yeah, it’s just as bad. Fuck the retarded admins and fuck the left
Considering your failed attempts at debate I’ve seen the problem is you don’t actually have any defenses of your positions and when that fails you fall back on projection. If you don’t want to feel isolated then you need to actually learn and understand how to have real debates and discussions and learn how to argue in good faith. Majority of people on fediverse expect arguments to have evidence and proof and not just anecdotal emotional response statements.
Lol nice lies pal. Maybe go pester all the leftist spammers in my responses that don’t even come close to any of the standards you’re laying out. If you’re only interested in jerking yourself off, there’s dozens of other communities where all your pinko pals are already started. I have no issues with debating in good faith, I just see no reason to give any benefit of the doubt to obvious bad actors who refuse to extend good faith themselves, such as yourself.
And this is why you are downvoted and ridiculed. You have zero self awareness or critical understanding. Your insults or attempts to ridicule mean literally nothing because people need to believe you have something worthwhile to say. And so far, all you are doing is projecting and spewing made up talking points. Make no mistake, I couldn’t give two shits what you end up doing or if you stay on the fediverse at all. I would love conservatives that actually had self awareness and could debate real conservative talking points, not trumpican vitriol. So far you are just another angry trumpican spewing out unverified talking points. And at no point does that kind of hate deserve a safe space, ever. Later
Lol keep up the bullshit pal, maybe you’ll earn yourself some fake internet points with it.
I just pity you. You would have better luck on Twitter or reddit with other trumpicans. No one with intelligence gives a shit about internet points, so im giving you an upvote to maybe make you feel better.

I wonder what this person thinks a “leftist” is?
I was trying to give them the benefit of the doubt as much as possible. But I dont believe they really think all that much on their own based on their responses.

In what fucking universe pal. Because most people don’t consider brazenly dishonest character attacks to fall under “benefit of the doubt”
