"We have a responsibility to imitate the natural food chain of the animals — in terms of both animal welfare and professional integrity," Aalborg Zoo says.
Not gonna lie, I’m borderline getting used to extremism and antisocial behaviour on lemmy. This place feels like 4chan that hates 4chan. The wake-up call for me was when I was arguing against killing everyone on earth because of how shitty the people are, saying that some of us very much enjoy the life. Got downvoted.
I’ve also seen several calls for genocide against Jews. Pretty ironic for a platform that so loudly hates the current genocide.
You’re painting everybody together with one brush. I’m against humanity ending, I’m against genocide, whoever it’s practiced on. I also don’t see a problem with this (what I do have a problem with is the number of commentors who didn’t bother reading the article and are claiming it’s because the zoo is broke).

Suggesting that the Palestinian side isn’t an angel either and the Israelis are assholes too, will get you labelled as the world’s most devout othrodox Jewish Zionist to the level of Theodore Hertzl himself.
I tend to hope for the best, but you actually hit the nail, I’ve had the exact same thought at the back of my mind about lemmy for quite some time. Much of the community is made up of people who have been banned or disliked elsewhere, so this is their refugee. The very first thing I noticed is how toxic users are with downvotes. It is no longer a community tool about moderating quality discussions, it’s essentially used as a “fuck you”, so I had to disable (hide) it and disregard vote system on this site, especially after seeing how easily it is for people to mass downvote lemmy profiles with multiple accounts (happened to me 2 times, even highly upvoted plain humor comments were suddenly downvoted). My guess is that we’re getting downvoted here, but do you really care?

What did you expect from the platform that was created because reddit banned extremists? Fewer extremists than the place that banned them? Why?
