what’s the appeal? I’ve run into no reasons to switch, and I don’t even use any apps.

I never stopped doing organizing work since Trump 1, during the Biden regime a lot of people went back to brunch, it was harder to find volunteers. Now they’re all back and ready to be mad at the government and do work.

MS-13 or Russia

neither of those are real concerns tbh. Americans should be concerned about housing, feeding and providing medical care to everyone before worrying about external threats.

hexbear is heavily transfem and bans aggressively for misogyny/transphobia. Spending some time there when their recent domain crisis defederated from the rest of Lemmy was actually quite relaxing

I’m leftist, but

classic lol

.world is about as anticommunist as you can expect, if that’s not enough for you maybe you could relocate to one of the Nazi servers

zero, vegan

I think the explanation is simply that Lemmy’s users are all contrarians, or else they would be using Reddit. Frequently they are of the international leftist sort due to the founder effect.

You also get pretty aggressively censored/banned for expressing opposition to US foreign policy on reddit. For example hexbear is on here and has the culture it has because it was originally a lifeboat for a leftist subreddit that got banned.

It really takes living in America to appreciate how necessary anti-american sentiment is. Regime change begins at home.

this is why I usually browse Lemmy in new/comments/all, I just wish it had more than one page at a time or the ability to set more posts in one page

I believe they forked from Lemmy before federation existed close to 4 years ago, added things like custom emojis and then only re-merged after federation was implemented then turned it on.

So marginalized groups have to be careful not to offend your sensibilities when arguing for their existence, got it. Honestly par for the course with centrists.

I am rather moderate left

blocking the main extreme left instances

Sounds like you’re plenty interested in hearing from conservatives. 🤔

lmao you should add me too, I hate having libs, racists, and bigots reading my posts

I doubt you think of yourself like this but to an outside observer you’re deeply toxic.

From my position warmongering is deeply toxic.

No matter how much organizing you do with other anarchists offline, to the .world crowd if you’re to the left of Joe Biden you’re a tankie.

They tend to actually remove comments for being chauvinist and for some reason that seems to rub certain people the wrong way.

If you’re planning on leaving I won’t miss you passive aggressively using only neutral pronouns for me or calling me insane.

So accusing left wingers of being right wing is okay as far as you’re concerned if it’s about an election

Pointing out that from a left wing perspective, Biden and the Democrats are doing bad things and their supporters are right wing: wrong, not descriptive, belongs in a tankie shit hole.

K

Being full of anticommunists who call anyone left of Biden a tankie makes an instance right wing in my eyes at least

I agree with you that this conflict needs a resolution, it’s possible lemmy.ml has done some things wrong, that’s why I support a two state solution that guarantees lemmy.mls security.
