Lemmy is mostly leftists and communists and it seems that patience is running thin on how some very active reactionary HB's behave against the ideologies. There are also cool & funny leftists there but they get lost in noise.
Lemmy isn't mostly leftists and commies, it's that the leftist and commie instances defederated with the right wing instances
And good riddance to that
I enjoy a place where I don't argue with right-wing people all the time
And during my instances time federated with Hexbear it was a shitty time for sure as arguing with those people was just as terrible
I, too, enjoy my safe echo chambers. Just like Facebook!
You must have some well curated Facebook. Mine has been mingling extreme left acquaintances with extreme right old country ass family members for over a decade.
Thatβs only a problem if youβre using it as a primary way to interact with the world or inform yourself. If itβs just entertainment, you donβt actually need to see anti-sjw and cool america facts memes along with your cat pictures to be a balanced person.
It's both true that Lemmy is mostly leftists and communists, and which have defederated from right wingers
Humphrey Bogarts?
Halle Berry
