Lemmy is populated by far left Americans who were banned from Reddit for extremism. Strict ideological conformity is required or you’ll get actual death threats. Don’t go there unless you want violent communist revolution and hate discussing interesting ideas.
Ahh yes let’s discuss fringe radical far left views like ‘let’s not kill all the poor people’ and ‘the state has a duty to protect its citizenry’ yes, dangerously radical.
And radical economic ideas like “buy stuff from companies in your own country” or “don’t buy stuff from companies in a country that is in the process of severing trade ties with your country”.
Wow that’s so radical how can you believe such fringe far left talking points
If you think genocide is bad, you’re a communist!
No shit though, the most rabid anti-communists literally thought like that. Like J. Edgar Hoover, the reichminister of the FBI straight up said shit in his book
Literally saying if you were against shit like Jim crow segregation or having paid vacation days at your job you were literally taking your marching orders from the USSR.
That’s how out of touch with humanity they are. If you aren’t trying to inflict the maximum amount of human suffering with your every breath you’re their enemy.
