No. Being politically active is of the upmost importance to me right now. I'm exhausted, but this election year is a matter of survival for queer people.

what does that have to do with Lemmy though?

Social media is always used to spread propaganda, China and Russia have groups of people dedicated exclusively to this

so you believe you are going to contribute to positive change for LGBTQ+ community by responding to propaganda on social media?

Look if somebody is spewing propaganda and nobody is there to report the person to the mods and/or provide an opposing comment then the propaganda is going to run wild

I think you overstate how significantly social media impacts your local community and livelihood. like, it does, but not nearly as much as what you could do out in the world

Uh, no I live in one of those areas that would take a miracle to improve
