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.
This is just lemmy.ml in a nutshell, the most insane takes. Whenever I see something this far off the deep end, it’s a near certainty that lemmy.ml is at it again.

You could have started off with that. Saves everyone some time.

I am for sure side-eyeing every post on the instance now. I have never seen the Horseshoe Theory this blatant.
