tl;dr: let’s stop the generic and almost-irrelevant-doom-and-gloom
karma-harvesting one-liners that can be copy-pasted between any two articles

period of time is probably aware of the drill – when you create an account,...
They wish there was a Lemmy Admin team that can ban instances (us). All I can gather is they're mad we exist and can talk to one another and see other parts of the internet. Anti-Communism 101.
The post deffinitly doesn't have anything to do with us but it is funny that they got mad and wanted to defederate from anybody left of Hillary Clinton and then get confused why their comments section is the exact same tired garbage as reddit.
There was a neoliberal post about how their users should avoid arguing with communists if you can’t quickly find the information and refutations on Wikipedia lol
That first picture is just typical r*dditor talk, although you're probably right because I've long suspected there's way more bot activity on Reddit than anyone thinks.
I've been thinking that the "memes" posted in some lemmy comms are super low quality shit scraped off Facebook. and the commenters in those threads often kinda sound like they're all one really weird nerd.
after seeing your first image, and that guy in your second image, I honestly think there's a bunch of bots at work here.
Yeah some of those memes feel like boomer's first meme page from eight years ago. I was kinda surprised and just wondering if I had been so immersed in the Hexbear humour stack that I forgot what normie memes were like.
I only saw one mediocre thread on that post referring to us. The rest just seems like folks pissy about call and response bits. Which, fair, but also, :this:
ok time to contribute something meaningful that you wouldn't see copy-pasted between almost any two articles phfffrrrtt pfpfffhfpfpfprrrrrrt pbbbpbpbpbpfpfpfpbpbpvbdpdtpgptrrrt SNKKKKKKKKKGGGG-HACK (ptoo)
in the comments. the post itself is good enough, comment quality is undervalued on corpo social media, but i think we're significantly above the average here on chapo dot chat.
I had the idea that we were talking about liberal with the quotations around left. I suppose this could be misguided tolerating intolerance. I just hoped for better. The position that liberals are bewildered when they're attacked from the left is a common point when talking about federation. If it's about communists it's probably systemic violence apologia
I forget where I heard this first, but I like the concept of tolerance as a peace treaty, not as a virtue. Someone else breaks the treaty, and it's open season.
