Most people are groovy and pleasant to interact with.

You should try it, it’s nice!

You’re missing the point.

By being wildly unpleasant at people, you’re making it less likely they’ll read the news you agree with, read the same books and come to the same conclusions…

“Oh good, that person who called me a fascist is recommending something! I’ll definitely read that!” - said no one ever.

There have been a bunch of pleas to grow the fediverse, as stated in the opening.

And the block button isn’t a particularly good recommendation for new people.

Out of curiousity, say there was an instance that allowed all speech and had great content. Would you tell a trans friend “hey it’s great, just block every time you see something hateful.” Or can we see how that would be an unpleasant experience.

Anyway, if you don’t want a larger fediverse, that’s groovy but that seems contrary to the nature of almost every post here.

Canada.

No mainstream party suggests UBI as a matter of principle for example.

You should block better or.something?

And the people who failed Bernie were the voters who didn’t show up. Age wise, the youth got their heads kicked in by the seniorsin the primaries by a depressing margin. If you don’t vote, you don’t make differences.

I mean, bailing out the banks as a failure? Shit, there shouls have been regulations (like Canada had) to stop crazy trading but unless you wanted a lot pf people to lose their pensions and life savings, this is an impressively silly point.

Edit: also, the she wasn’t about you it was about the person whom OP had asked about. (Yes, not everything revolves around you, though admittedly that wasn’t super clear from the paragraph construction) I just used you as an example of lemmy’s delightful crazies.

Yeah, I’m not sure what the solution is or if there even is one. To paraphrase Randal in Clerks “lemmy would be great if it weren’t for all the lemmings.”

(I think a lot of folks are great but that small, albeit very vocal group… Ugh.)

Lib shaming is for good reason as the US and most of the western world falls to fascism thanks to libs creating the material conditions for it.

Presumably, there was an alternative group to vote for in primaries or however else this delightful person thinks change should happen. People did not do whatever they think should have happened and thus I will name call them.
