    Lemmy is getting there trust me. Go to the politics theme subs and disagree. Even if you stay on their side but disagree on a point, you’ll get a bunch of threats and hate and then a ban without explanation. Many of the people bullied by mods came to Lemmy to become mods and are now the bullies

      Most of your bans are for Misogyny, attacking other users and wishing people would drop dead. I’m not really buying the story that you were unfairly banned from https://lemmy.world/c/world for disagreeing.

            Yeah im an indigenous person whose home was bombed by Americans and who has endured decades of American racism. I hate colonizers and Americans, you’re not a race, get over it. Americans suddenly playing victim in 2025 after shitting al over the world for a century is rich.

            White colonizer suburban kids calling my red indigenous ass racist, you guys are lunatics.

      But almost always, during the initial stage of the struggle, the oppressed, instead of striving for liberation, tend themselves to become oppressors, or “sub-oppressors.” The very structure of their thought has been conditioned by the contradictions of the concrete, existential situation by which they were shaped. Their ideal is to be men; but for them, to be men is to be oppressors. This is their model of humanity

      A quote from Paulo Freire, in the pedagogy of the oppressed

        So do you think he’s right? Almost always… Their model of humanity/to be men is to oppress?

          That part I read as an exaggeration as a figure of speech. The most interesting part to me is about people becoming the oppressors themselves due to this being their only learned model of human interaction.

      I would create an alternative political sub for open-minded people who are okay with disagreements, but I fear it will be flooded with right-wing extremists quickly. :S

          lol yeah. For real though, I hate that even the notion of questioning the standard way of thinking is now considered remiss. And using “facts and logic” is openly mocked as well. Ben Shapiro ruined discourse for everyone by being a tool. It’s like some kind of anti-meme.

      That’s where decentralization comes in.

      You’re in lemmy.world. That’s the most mainstream, libtarted instance. That is just mainstream reddit expats

      I don’t use my Lemmy.world accounts anymore, because they generally suck. Just like the ml instances are full of tankies, your instance is full of mainstream idiots

      Get weird. Migrate to a better instance, you’ll have a better experience. I can recommend several to you if you tell me about your personal beliefs, but no matter what they tell you… Your home server does matter, a lot. And you’re in the instance equivalent to modern day Democrats
