Lemmy has been pretty insane lately - like I definitely feel like i'm in the liberal equivalent of /r/TheDonald or /r/conservative. Just absolutely asinine takes, completely out of context, with no nuance whatsoever. The comments are even worse, with insane virtue signaling and justification for abhorrent behavior.
This isn't why we wanted to move off the big platforms, we weren't looking for an even more toxic mechanism to spread misinformation and shit opinions.
For the record I'm a liberal, but what is thriving here at Lemmy is something rotten and is bad for the community.
"But, but, you see, once authoritarianism starts creeping in, and it makes some inroads, which it's definitely making right now man."
The irony of Duncan Trussel saying this while wearing a Palantir hat feels like a top tier psyop. I'm not even conspiratorial but there is no conceivable world where you could be that dense.
