The more I use lemmy, the more it begins to just feel like all the same problems reddit had. It has the same problems with major communities having far left moderation standards that only apply to the right, the same hive mind users that just spam the same tired out leftist talking points over and over while refusing anything close to an actual discussion.

The only upsides are that downvotes aren’t used to punish you site wide, and the handful of non-leftist instances that exist, though they always end up defederated by all the major instances, effectively making them poor spaces for general discussion.

So what are your thoughts? Is this just the “more like under new management” from megamind? Is there hope for it to become a decent platform for everyone, not just the left?

Edit: yeah, it’s just as bad. Fuck the retarded admins and fuck the left

      Let’s start once you figure out how to interact in good faith. Unfortunately I don’t think you’ll be around long enough to do so

          It’s not a threat, it’s an assessment of your disposition. You could outlive the sun and I doubt you would learn a thing in that time.

            You’re still working on a rebuttle for why trickle down economics doesn’t work so instead you resort to ad homiem attacks, like a republican.

            Prove you’re still sentient and give me a rebuttle my guy.

                Great question. Here are your answers:

                • I am not trolling. I am asking you a serious question, honestly.
                • You seem to be fine with having a conversation but you keep deflecting the questions I am asking with ad homimen (that means argument against the person, its a logical fallacy - fallacy meaning falsehood - false meaning wrong) attacks. This leads me to beleive you can’t come up with a rebuttle.

                This was just my first question of many but if you’re too scared to try to have a real honest discussion like every republican I have ever met then you will need to run off to your safespace.

                One more shot, kid. I have to get work done. Work is a place where services are exchanged for money. Money can be used to buy things. Let me know if anything else is still unclear for you and I can clarify once I am done working for the day.

                I am sure you have some job you can blow.

                    Deflect, deflect, deflect.

                    So, you’ve accused me of trolling, left and right despite me not trolling.

                    You can’t answer a single question.

                    You sure you aren’t already an elected official?

                    You sure sound like an idiot.

            You just seem bent on proving yourself as a republican huh? You can’t answer a single question truthfully without resorting to ad homiem attacks and trying to wriggle out of anything that even slightly resembles a debate.

            You’re not majorie tatlor greene, you are steven crowder! You’re uncomfortable conversing with anyone who has an education.

            Oh well. I have been trying to get republicans to talk for over a decade and it seems they are just too cowardly to attempt a response, probably because they will gey dragged over the coals and need to run to their safe spaces.

            Now all that’s left is for you to use the classic “we’re done here” as you take what you consider to be the moral high ground.

            Go ahead. Say the line.

              Buddy I did answer your initial questions before you just decided to go full on spam. But if you’re too dull to pick out the meaning, that’s on you, although I’m pretty sure you understood plenty well and you were just looking to try and be a nuisance.
