I was hoping this politics community would be reasonable and have good discussion.

instead we just get more of r/politics

Social media perpetuating identity politics then acting confused when there's such a big divide in this country.

I liked r/politics. My political identity is enlightened centrist.

Nah lemmy is even further left than Reddit. What would you expect from an anti corporate decentralized group. Lemmy is basically communism of social media.

You are either a far left echo chamber member here or human trash. They see no difference.

Your comment implies we're all assholes on here, then you're surprised people aren't treating you with respect 🤔

Not assholes. Just you are almost all part of the same echo chamber and have very similar beliefs and values and those without those values are shunned because the majority rule on lemmy is far left.
