MODERATORS
 

The more I use lemmy, the more it begins to just feel like all the same problems reddit had. It has the same problems with major communities having far left moderation standards that only apply to the right, the same hive mind users that just spam the same tired out leftist talking points over and over while refusing anything close to an actual discussion.

The only upsides are that downvotes aren't used to punish you site wide, and the handful of non-leftist instances that exist, though they always end up defederated by all the major instances, effectively making them poor spaces for general discussion.

So what are your thoughts? Is this just the "more like under new management" from megamind? Is there hope for it to become a decent platform for everyone, not just the left?

Edit: yeah, it's just as bad. Fuck the retarded admins and fuck the left

Did you ever consider that maybe the majority isn't actually that "far left", but it is you who is so far right that everybody else looks like a raging marxist to you? There are of course tankies on here, but the vast majority seem like average ordinary people to me.

Considering both them and you openly admit to being leftists, I'm not sure why I would assume otherwise

Seriously though, 4chan is definitely your best bet. If this annoys you when I say it because you don't want to associate with 4chan, maybe you should realize that's how you're coming off already.

If you don't like talking with average people, people who most likely do not share your viewpoints, you can always stop trying if you want. I'm sure it would be appreciated.

Talking with you wouldn't make anybody smart.
