I've noticed that lemmy as a whole is much more leftist than reddit (outside of political servers of course)
I can't really think of a reason for that as Reddit is hated somewhat equally by "both" sides of the spectrum. It's just something I find interesting.

And what would exclusion, inhumane treatment and exploitation mean? It's key to clearly define the concepts before applying the label to someone, as if they stay undefined everyone can have the label applied
Right, so another policy from the early days of Lemmy that I thought was quite vital: No endless discussions on what precisely constitutes Nazi behaviour.
It's truly not hard to not be a Nazi. And if someone is even roughly in the ballpark of being a Nazi, the community as a whole just doesn't care to have that person's input here.
Which is a roundabout way of saying that I do not think, it's relevant to clearly define these terms.
Then it's easy to fall to "Nazi is when I don't like"
If you’re worried people will think you’re a Nazi, maybe it’s not the other people you should be worried about.
What if you just have no idea of what my views are and I hate Nazis probably as much if not more as you do?
Then I’m happy to be wrong (fewer Nazi sympathizers is always better), and you have nothing to worry about. But that you consider a potentially over-broad definition of Nazism a major problem in this political climate suggests that even if you are antifascist, your priorities are skewed.
See? Now I get called a fascist just because I'm scared of how commonly that buzzword is used
You really worked for it though. You can also just behave like a regular human.
Whatever, you just made huge assumptions about me
Like what? That you’re a regular human? I apologize!!
No, that I like fascism
I did no such thing. But it really doesn’t matter if you like it. The way you engage with the concept is icky enough.
Why is "I don't like authoritarianism" so hard to understand? With a number of exceptions I can count with one hand, I'd support social democracy if it has a decent welfare and economic freedoms. However, it's a priority to stomp down on monopolies, as they're nothing more than an obstacle to fair economic competition
Please point out where I called you a fascist, or stop pretending you’re being persecuted.
