I feel the exact opposite. Reddit has turned into a MAGA hell hole. It’s totally unbearable and might as well be X now.
What subs in particular? To me it's almost indisputable that reddit is overtaken by your run of the mill performative lib. I really can't imagine someone saying they are MAGA and getting upvoted for it
Mostly more mainstream subs like r/damnthats interesting. Regardless, I feel there’s a good balance on Lemmy. I feel like it’s more palatable here. Someone disagrees and moves on. That’s how it should be. It’s no Kumbaya, and that fine. I just feel people move on here and won’t downvote you to oblivion on Lemmy. Anyway, we may disagree and that’s okay. Nice to have you here. I feel like this is the more adult place.
Can you provide a single example of someone proclaiming MAGA beliefs and getting upvoted significantly on that subreddit? Sorry but I find that very hard to believe.
I think the guy's personal overton window has shifted to the left.
Thats surprising, reddit always felt like /atheism but for left wing politics.
