Don’t do shit like “lemmy etiquette”. Just follow human etiquette and be a pleasant human and everything will be fine.
Also stop worrying so much about “doing anything bad”. Sometimes you fuck up, sometimes you upset people, it’s no big deal.
I’m a pleasant human but find myself often downvoted for what I consider an average social democratic view; taking the viewpoint that, in my country, cops are generally trustworthy, the market works when regulated by a well functioning democracy and it’s ok to be wealthy, but expect to be properly taxed.
Hot take but I think people who spread misinformation should be downvoted.
Oh man, you must not deal with cops a lot.
I see you believe in fairytales
Or I live in a country with better cops than you?
In terms of delivering the highest proven outcomes for the broadest amount of people I’ve not seen evidence that anything beats a well regulated market. If new evidence is presented I shall gladly revise my opinion.
those views are considered heinous on many lemmy instances, that’s why.
the lemmy hivemind is largely socialist/communist, or at least anti capitalist. it’s also intolerate of anyone with moderate or conservative viewpoints on social and/or economic issues.
just accept that and ignore the haters. most instances desperately need more diversity in their viewpoints.
the good thing is unlike reddit, you won’t be banned for having a different point of view.
