I have been on reddit for just about 12 years now. Something I’ve noticed over time is just how hateful the place has become. A complete outrage machine. Every single sub became filled with it. I’ve filtered so many subreddits over the last few years, it’s insane. I don’t know enough about this place to be sure, but I do hope it doesn’t become the same type of echo chamber of anger.
Tbf lemmy just went through a huge wave of fuck spez posts not too long ago. And still is ongoing to some degree
Unfortunately Lemmy is not immune to this behavior. I made a comment about what I think of the current general political situation in the U.S. and some loon flew off the handle, throwing around the standard anti Fox tropes and name calling
Some people just can’t help themselves. Especially when it comes to politics and the like. They are incapable of having a discussion and all they do is attack and name call. Their identity is wrapped up in their political views and they can’t think for themselves. They come from every side and are everywhere.
Its justice when villains like spez and trump get their daily dose of hate.Hate only deserve to bad people.
“Hate is worse though. It’s poison that corrodes it’s container: more damaging to the one who hates than the one hated”
