Oh yeah, the conservative sub is ridiculous too...but it's contained. The left shit is everywhere around here. It's like oxygen.

I got sorta yelled at on here for "only attacking the left" and I was like... I can't attack people who aren't around now can I?

I have seen like one or two "right"comments in the sea of lefty circle jerkin that's permeated this entire site. It really is as abundant as oxygen around these parts.

I'm still gonna stick around and attempt to engage in meaningful discussions from time to time, but I have already had comments deleted and been banned from subs for saying very normal and accurate things. Now I'm not surprised that I was banned from the Vegan sub instantly, but still. The mod abuse and censorship here seems even worse than reddit which is honestly kinda impressive.

May we one day find a home that isn't inundated by extremism.

[–] Majorllama@lemmy.world 0 points 1 day ago

Sadly I don't think that's ever going to happen. The unfortunate reality is that both forms of extremism tend to slowly pull at people from the center over time. Even if we got a group of moderates around someone would get mad and get pushed one way or another more. And thus the cycle repeats.

It's the classic "what radicalized you" meme. All of us are extremists in one way or another. We just haven't had something push us over the edge yet.
