  • No, your reasoning, understanding of a topic and way of talking is just dumb. Get rid if that paranoia of everyone bullying you. Don’t go into threads of your political opposite and then be surprised to get flogged. Don’t brush of everyone disagreeing with you as “they are all the same and equally bad”. Stop ignoring authoritarian abusing power and wake up from you fantasy dream world where you believe this doesn’t happen. Once you’ve given up some of your rights, it’s really hard to get them back. No one is defending pedo platforms, it’s about our lifes and knowledge that these surveillance tools will fuck up normal people. It just takes one stupid vote to get the fascists into power and a whole country can move into a dictatorship. If you fail to see this, your very naiv and need to study more history content.

    You’re not wrong in criticizing the US, people who look at them objectively should obviously see the many flaws. But as with guns , the US is very patriotic and it’s difficult to argue against. But getting someone to realize and fix their own bias is another difficult topic.

    Only 16 user. I don’t have an issue with most people. However since I brows mostly new content from All, I got to block some communities (166 so far) or I’ll see gay/trans content, content in foreign languages or Russian propaganda. I don’t have anything personal per se against the former, I’m not homophobic, I just don’t want to see nude males constantly. Other trans communities are just fine, like when they do memes or news.

    Sadly the later part, Lemmy is basically Reddit/r/worldnews but worse and spread over multiple communities without curation, allowing for a lot of propaganda. I don’t need content of people telling me that communism, which failed in their shit hole of a country, is the answer to capitalism.

    However I see that this is a constant battle of the instance owner trying to keep ahead, so some of those are probably blocked instance wide already by now.

    This will become less of an issue once the content we subscribed to is more and therefore we don’t need to brows All to get enough entertainment. It’s getting better by the day.
