Now that a lot of the commotion has subsided I’m just curious to know how y’all are finding the Lemmy experience in general and whether you use it regularly like you did reddit?

    I understand the political stuff. I made a comparison that the Democratic party is very similar to the Republican party in a few ways and ended up getting a death threat. It’s a cult I tell ya.

      I’m pretty far left politically and I can think of a number of similarities between the two parties. The dynamics are very much the same in certain cases but the ideology driving it is different.

        That is exactly what I pointed out but people can’t take criticism and cannot have a civil conversation. I had to recuse myself from the replys because they were just people attacking and trying to belittle me as a person or my opinion. Or people literally just cussing at me. We all know these are the ways to change someone’s mind.

        Zealots, their religion is their party. So anything said against their party is a slite against them.

      I haven’t completely switched to Lemmy yet. I don’t get as much of a diversity of views here.

      wtf! that’s no joke, stay anonymous my friend. What the dick that guy must have been!

        I am still pretty new to this and didn’t realize you could be anonymous. Now I have found that and you have made life easier. Thank you.
