Now let’s up pull up the GOP record on these things

Oh wait, that doesn’t matter because you’re just a bunch of assholes

Somehow this is the dems fault for not railroading republicans to pass their legislation.

Not the republicans for voting against it, but the dems for not trying hard enough.

Literally people in these comments posting dem voting records as some sort of gotcha as if McConnel and Co somehow have a better record

Don't let the door hit you on the way out, it's worth more than any conservative is.

Also lol that the "fReE SpEeCh" crowd cries a fucking river whenever people use that free speech to tell them they fucking suck.

So what was Tibet then?

You guys are never taken seriously because to buy off on any of this is to openly discredit reality.

Those African ports the Chinese are funding, I’m sure they’re just going to give them back to those African countries with a thank you?

What about Taiwan?

Hong Kong?

Color me shocked that someone so deep in the alt-right bullshit hole can even read.

There's already a huge handful of conservative communities and almost every conservative I've ever met is suddenly very upset with our military budget and without any proof think Zelensky is just pocketing the money.

But it has felt like they're still the minority for the time being.

Yeah imo the real problem with reddit was that

A: they started fudging the votes so they didn't really matter and they could shadowban accounts from even being able to upovte/downvote

B: stupid fucking awards could keep posts at the top even if they had like -2000

c: fascists were gaming the system with bots anyway to push their content.

What's more disgusting is the army of bots they used to slander their volunteers. Every subreddit I was actually active in was painfully obvious to see hundreds of accounts that never posted there suddenly showing up and being violently anti-moderator.

I reddit a LOT at work so I was probably spending roughly 3-4 hours a day with reddit at least in the background and I haven't actually intentionally visited the site for two weeks.

Honestly, my mental health is improving. Reddit is a shitty outrage machine that's astroturfed by corporations and fascists.

The world being ravaged by climate change is just god gearing up for the Rapture. A large portion of them literally want this to happen to fulfill their bullshit prophesy from their sky daddy.

Being a Tankie is when you go so far left you end up coming back right and supporting Fascism still.

True communism never existed, supporting anything the Soviet Union did is fascist.

I used to go to the /r/nfl free talk threads and the day after it opened HUNDREDS of new accounts were posting talking about how the mods were pussies and blah blah.

It felt fucking surreal like 2016 Russian bot astroturfing all over again.

If a business can't afford to pay its workers a living wage that business should not exist. If we all stopped going to these places they'll be forced to fix it.

But Reddit Vs Lemmy is like a microcosm of this issue. Most people will stay on Reddit because god forbid they get inconvenienced or have to do something differently.

The same way people won't leave twitter, won't stop getting food at McDonalds or shopping at Wal-Mart, etc...

When millions of people unironically say this shit every day, sarcasm isn’t really viable

It definitely felt like land of the shills before I stopped going. Just hundreds of random new accounts posting in every community that went dark.

Anyone who thinks Stalin/Lenin/Mao weren’t fascists has a severe mental impairment.

They pretend like they care about marginalized groups then gloss over the fact these 3 dudes murdered literally millions of people.

This shit is beyond annoying especially because their pin system fucking sucks. Half the time you have to go into one of those narrow corridor cave areas to find a dungeon it tells you to go the wrong way so you're outside of the area completely.

I recently ran into the problem where I signed up on a different federation or whatever and had to jump through a few hoops to get subscribed to the community I wanted.

I get that that's part of the allure of Lemmy but it's also a stumbling block. I can't just go to any community and sign up at the click of a button. Hopefully there's a workaround for this soon or I imagine a lot of lazy users like myself will just look elsewehere.

What you don't like being forced to dismount just to shoot some random roadblock with 2 skeletons then stand there for 8 seconds while your horse comes off cool down?

I can't possibly fathom why /s
