I've noticed that lemmy as a whole is much more leftist than reddit (outside of political servers of course) (lemmy.world)

I can't really think of a reason for that as Reddit is hated somewhat equally by "both" sides of the spectrum. It's just something I find interesting.

It's not a guilt thing for me. I've never voted for them, and I don't think they're fascist anyways. Not most of them, at least. The term's been pretty overapplied, which helps to radicalize.

I don't support either American political party. They're playing this radicalization game with each other, making it an effectively two-party system, gerrymandering, and doing whatever else to keep themselves in power. I'm planning to vote third party in the next election to at least take a step towards disrupting that.
