      That lemmy is way worse then reddit. There is some nuance and room for discussion over there.

        I left reddit because I was banned for saying “People can vote.” I find more nuanced discussions and less censorship here, it’s just that in a free non-corporate space conservatism is just an unpopular ideology when one of their leaders does a Nazi salute at the conservative winning presidential inauguration. But go ahead, put on your boots and uniform and maybe your Father will give you a medal for owning the libs.

            Nothing wrong with defending your team, that’s something us leftists are guilty of that we try to dunk on eachother more than organize and cooperate like our theory keeps telling us. Even if it takes a bit of scumbaggery, we’re stuck between the fear of maybe getting it wrong and not doing anything. I think the latter is worse.

              To finish off, I’m not left or right. I just want to live my life and watch funny memes about beans and Linux while I’m taking a shit. I don’t want the first 20 posts on /all be about the orange man or the ketamine junk. (yes I applied filters). Lastly don’t be so quick on calling everybody a nazi. Do you know what the nazi’s did, how fucking brutally inhumane they were, ever visited a concentration camp or asked your grandpa why they went to Europe and rushed Normandy at 17-18 years old. The muskrat is not a great person, but rather harmless compared to the nazi’s imo.

                Nazis had to start somewhere too, they didn’t come out the gate with mass murder, it was called “The Final Solution” because their other “Solutions” failed (deportation, segregation, ghettos, work camps, etc.) The Nazis were once just a fringe group that nobody took seriously, and here you are trying to say that two open Nazi salutes isn’t that big a deal. Your red arm band is showing.

                  I don’t think it will go that far and if you people don’t like it anymore in the states. Please visit Europe and maybe come live here. There is always room for educated people and it’s not as fucked up yet…

                    You understand that “I don’t think it will go that far” is absolutely no comfort to actual marginalized groups who’re at risk right?

                    Not concerning at all that the worlds richest man has suddenly taken an interest in politics and decided to get on stage and throw heils after talking about how AfD could save Germany?

                    You can like him if you want dude but don’t sit there and pretend to be impartial and unbiased. Dudes a fucking fascist trying to enable a white ethnostate, call it whatever you want. Courting Nazis makes you a Nazi to me.

                    And honestly, why should I leave my country? This is my home, my birthright, my family has been here longer than Musk OR Trump. Muskrat needs to go back to (South) Africa before he gets blue shelled.
