I’m not surprised. I’m on this site because I’m sick of being banned on reddit for thinking wrong.
What’s really fascinating is how many of the advice communities for certain sexual practices are run by bona fide rapists.
And this is where you went? This is literally Reddit’s bias taken to the level of hyperbole. The extremism groupthink here is the primary reason it hasn’t and likely will never go mainstream.

What? Where have you been that you have this kind of opinion? It’s basically the same as reddit: You do have your bubbles, you do have open minded communities, you also have closed minded communities. Your experience is therefore dependend on where you go.
For example: Joining a vegan server to say “meat is great” will lead to a shitshow. But that’s not supprising and it’s not because Lemmy per se harbors militant people.
Yeah, but try saying something slightly to nuanced about the Israel - Palestine situation almost anywhere here and you get nuked.
OK let’s try.
Zionist are blood thirsty monster
Hamas are terrorists
Hezbollah has no dicks left (wore pager in front) And no one in america who isn’t a vile glowie, can put these shitholes countries on the map
And none, NONE of us gives the slightest wind of a fart about anyone in the mideast.
Stop Zogging our governments for goddamned free bombs, you fucking bunch of revolting murdereous assholes.
That should do it ! Text me if you can still read this in a week.
4 hours in, can still read it. Agree with your assessment, too.
Yep same thing happened to me
You are at -20 and I can still read you just fine. On reddit they would have banned you, got you fired from your job and stolen your cat.
And if they right mod or person complains, gotten your account banned.
Same. Will never go back. Even the military subs are toxic now.
Imagine that.

Bruh, at least you just got banned “for” something. I got shadowbanned, and for seemingly no reason at all! I made some very neutral comments in fandom subreddits, and only when I looked at the pages logged out, I realized the comments were not showing up. I can only guess it was either my location, my custom domain email, or a combination of both.
I had that happen too. Conversations with people would just dissapear. I’m done there. I can’t say anything even slightly edgy without getting banned. I got banned from a sub for saying mods will kill reddit. I got a permanent hate speech ban for a fantastic joke.
“I can’t show you the evidence of Haitians eating pets. They already ate all the evidence.”
I like the reddit form of consuming information but that place you either get in line or get silenced. The equivalent of r/politics is far left on here too so that might be a bad sign for this site though lol.
Urm… You’re describing a completely different situation, you got banned for something you said and maybe by mods. I am describing a situation of being silenced for seemingly no reason and without even warning me!
It’s the same here
Somewhat, but the way federated instances are set up, it’s not nearly as bad or easily abused. Not as if making a new Reddit account was that much of a roadblock, either. They accept 10minutemail addresses.
The “wrong” is different here.
If it’s like that on lemmy.ca then why not go to a different Lemmy host or make your own. Both things that are not an option for Reddit
