I’m not from California, so I don’t know much about her; but this genuinely surprised me, especially how vicious and vitriolic the comments were. What’s going on there?

    I’m not interested in seeing blatant hate, homophobia, transphobia, sexism and racism.

    It’s this kind of petulant behavior right here. Calling everyone you don’t like a nazi just gets you ignored.

      I didn’t call anyone a nazi. You did. I just listed a list of reprehensible behaviors and you felt attacked

          They weren’t making a point, they were parroting a cliche that they’ve used so many times before, that they don’t even wait for the proper context before reusing it again.

            Just because you disagree or it was a cliche doesn’t mean they weren’t making a point.

        I didn’t feel attacked at all? I’m not a right winger at all, just pointing out that your extremist language helps nobody.

          You: I’m not a right winger at all

          Also you: Folks, never vote democrat

          Given that we (unfortunately) exist in a two party system, it’s either one or the other bud, and I think we all know which answer is actually true to your beliefs lol

          And before you respond with “I was just mocking the guy above me”. The fact that your whole post history is mocking democrats, and never Republicans says all you need to know lol

            I mean, there’s not a lot of repubs to engage with on this platform. But you’re right, we exist in a two party system and both parties are too far right for me to vote for either.

            Doesn’t stop me from calling out conservatives that vindicate themselves by voting D.

      As someone who leans left and hates the GOP, you’re absolutely right. Lemmy is an echochamber full of a lot of nonsense that limits it’s potential and just causes more division and problems.

          So your response to a reasonable statement about this being an echochamber is a strawman attack against me… ok.
