Looking for an actual left leaning Lemmy instance
I originally signed up for lemmy about six months ago due to becoming outraged over reddit's continual coddling of hard right and fascist powermods that use their authority to harass.
It was good here at lemmy.world for a long while until I started getting harassed by a 12 day old right leaning mod in /politics.
I posted a thread here about what to do and even got back a response from the site operator.
Which was shortly followed by a PM my thekingoflorida (the site operator) scolding me and threatening action for calling out the mods bad behavior in threads.
Reading the wind I realized lemmy.world is heading down the shitshow path that so many other online social forums have become and immediately deleted my account.
@thekingoflorida I do not want you to respond, I don't care about your opinion, and if the fucking software would let me block you, I would have already.
So in short, I'm looking for a lemmy instance that has zero right wing users with admins that actually want to keep right wing forum manipulation off of their platform. I don't care about 'the marketplace of ideas' or fairness in speech that tries to give space to fascist rhetoric in the guise of equality.
EVERY time they worm their ways in and have admin support, it ALWAYS railroads into what ruined reddit. And I'm tired of these shitstains ruining communities that I enjoy.
So, TL;DR: I'm looking for a lemmy instance with ZERO tolerance for anything right of Bill Clinton.
If you can only win arguments with strawmen, are you even winning at all?
Asks the person, telling me I'm arguing when all I did was make a shitty joke in reply to something someone else said as a strawman comment?
Yes. Yes I am.
people like you are the reason I left reddit
No, people like the mods you mentioned are why. I didn't do shit but make a crappy joke to someone else. But you're clearly scanning your own post for more comments to try to argue why you're right and we're wrong. You were even given honest and well intentioned replies which you replied to by being a jerk as if everyone else in this discussion scoured the comments before making the suggestion. People like you are why you left Reddit. You are bitching about people doing what you're doing, you just want to be the one to do it with no objections.
Considering I thanked the two people that offered actual suggestions, and everyone else is just meming and joking, your reply is largely just you mentally masturbating.
I've seen this pattern so many times before that it is pretty clear where your position and ideology lies.
My original comment was a joke you dunce. And it wasn't even to you but you managed to "mentally masturbate" to your own post to the point you're arguing with people who never engaged you to begin with.
He obviously doesn't take anything that isn't immediate agreement with everything he has to say in any context well.
I have a hunch that he may start calling you a russian bot soon, based on the timing of the tantrum he's throwing about moderation.
Plenty of comedy communities on lemmy.world, why troll a place for people just looking for answers?
Do you ever even once consider how your low effort casual comments shape communities?
