Can Lemmy please stay this way.

Non-toxic comments and memes that have aged like fine wine. I'm here indefinitely.
- Please stay and behave like fine wine
Bigger instances and communities may end up being more PC over the years but I think smaller ones will retain this vibe.
- How is that comment not PC??
  
  You are right! I read and parsed it backwards and thought the comment was dire 🤣. Thought the OP was asking for plausible sounding falsehoods and the commenter said “you are loved and deserve happiness”. I retract my statement. I think Fediverse will stay nice. People on more main stream anonymous social sites are even mostly nice like this don’t you think?
If this is something you want in the community, you gotta try to be that part of the community too in whatever way feels natural to you, such as making a post like this. <3
At first I thought this was a sarcastic statement until i read the community name
Awwww... lemmy be so wholesome. This doesn't feel normal at all coming from other parts of the internet.
Beehaw is exactly like this, great place if you are into that stuff
I hate to be the harbinger of doom but..

I don't want to block the politics communities, but I may have to.
- I like that they're as chaotic and divided as they are.
  People SHOULD be exposed to things they don't agree with or believe in. Even if it's legitimately objectively stupid, it keeps people from forming homogeneous opinion groups where they never actually think for themselves, and it allows them to articulate arguments against said stupidity. If you section people off like reddit has, you end up with r/The_Donald type communities that call politicians God Emporer
  
  Yup, we got where we are now by division, fear mongering, and isolationism. We won't make any progress by perpetuating isolation, paranoia, and hatred.
