I can’t really think of a reason for that as Reddit is hated somewhat equally by “both” sides of the spectrum. It’s just something I find interesting.

      Not my opinion, but from what I’m seeing it seems more like in this thread: Left = Good, Right = Nazis

        Seems to be the American thing of pretending all the members of the party you don’t like are extremists and all the members of the party you do like are moderates

          That’s honestly the state of the world. Left: good, right wing is somehow fascist. Will sound like some QANON shit but this is probably what Putin and others want, to divide and conquer. While we’re arguing about shit that in the end doesn’t really matter, The US dollar is going downhill together with western democracies.

            Not even Putin, a lot of politicians (including both American parties) want that. Their primary purpose is not to improve the lives of their citizens, but to protect the interests of the rich.

              Don’t forget continuing problems rather than fixing them and pushing propaganda that keep their voters perpetually enraged to manipulate them for their votes so they can give themselves another raise, commit insider trading, continue getting lobbied to, etc. You know, career politician scumbag shit.

              I mean that’s is just to show how much of a reform the American system actually needs. Lobbying should be forbidden for instance.

        Pretty much sums up the nowadays discussions. If you’re a commie/socialist you’re good, if you even dare to defend the free market you’re a shit asshole.

        Everyone who defends a free market will like Lemmy since it’s pretty much adding a competitor (or a ton of them if you count it as instances) to the market. If the instance owner wants profit or not I don’t know, but these type of servers does not run themselves for free.
