You just are never going to get it. I listen to all sides. I do my own research and form my own opinion. When was the last time you read something factual that goes against what you believe, did your own research and changed your opinion? I have done it many times.

LOL 99% of the media has a leftist slant which is why you are firmly in the hive of misinformation. And peer reviewed means that they agree with you

Did you bother to read the rules of the group?

I agree most social platforms are leftist hive mind wastelands. What is funny is how 99% isn’t enough for the leftist. They must eliminate all debate. But if I couldn’t defend my position in a debate I guess I would just call the other guy names. So much better to live in the hive and never have to think for yourself

Excellent point. Let’s make lemmy a one voice, one opinion paradise. Just like any tolatarian govenment that we all love. And remember that anyone who disagrees with us is bad. Interesting how some so much fear open discussion with those who hold opinions different than there’s. Not surprising why people on the left despise debates of the issues.

Good point. Why have a place for all points of view. Much better to have an echo chamber

I agree with a prior poster that very few of them there know anything about lemmy. I was recently banned there and stumbled upon lemmy. As a former mod there I know that I could get many to migrate but have lost the ability to post there. Anyone have any ideas how to get a reddit account unbanned other than the usual appeal process.

there is a famous quote that comes to mind. “there are none so blind as those who refuse to see”. And the basis of that quote is exactly what those currently in power count on.

LOL. Reading some of the comments here I am starting to believe that there are multiverses and we have visitors from them to the one that we currently reside in

So you are saying that if everything was equal and this was one of Trump’s kids the outcome would be the same?

Anyone have a simple explanation regarding what it’s all about. Is it just a scam?

Anyone reading this, if you did the exact same things you would with no doubt be pleading the length of your jail term

That’s exactly how it works. They can’t just leave you alone. They have to take over whatever you are doing that “offends” them

Reddit was a place to start the morning and get some news especially on the subs that I moderated. I spent way too much time with it. I am looking forward to friendly engagement of sane people. Reddit had way too much of us vs. them. And their Admins readily bannned all who did not agree with their political and cultural opinions. I enjoy engaging with those who have opinions different than mine, I just do not want them shoved down my throat as I would not force my opinions on others.
