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.

Reality has a well known left leaning bias.

Conservatives and their politics do not have equal status. In this climate, "both sides" is toxic and suggest each is equally supported and viable. They are not. The right is an incredibly hateful minority end should be treated as such.

I'd say it's mainstream media-type liberal bias. Inclusive aesthetically, and occasionally sincerely too, but mostly shit.

Wow. Way to paint everyone with a different thought process the same. Very human of you.

Now you've convinced me! I really ought to have been the bigger man when my mom called me in the middle of the night to tell me that Trump's a martyr like Jesus and that the Democrats are performing demonic baby-eating rituals inside underground tunnels, and just let her keep screaming about me being a brainwashed woke communist because we just have little differences and we all need to get along.

Haha, nope. I want scorched earth on every one of those conspiracy nut fuckers holding right-wing parties around the balls, since they went after my family with their brainrot. I don't give a shit that a handful of people exist who don't explicitly support Jewish Space Laser Marge or Venmo Bribes Clarence, because y'all still vote lock step to keep these crazy loons around because Roe v. Wade is worth killing for $300 extra on next year's tax return.

Is it miserable?

Having your entire identity based on a political team?

Constantly being angry and thinking the worst about your peers?

Because it SOUNDS miserable.

Probably not as miserable as it is to have to spend all your energy pretending to not see how your political ideas have fully doomed humanity to drive itself extinct

my mom called me in the middle of the night to tell me that Trump’s a martyr

Gonna have to take any political and moral position you have with a grain of salt, since crazy runs in the family

That doesn't make sense and you know it. It's stupid and vindictive.
