Unlike previous attempts at trying reddit alternatives (like Voat), kbin and much of the lemmyverse doesn’t seem to be plagued with extreme far right buffoonery. (kbin.social)

It’s one thing to have differing views, but I’ve seen enough attempted reddit migrations to be relieved that the popular communities in the fediverse so far haven’t been about crazy racist stuff or other extreme right bullshit.

I am also glad that I’m getting away from reddit’s general political shitposting, which was more left leaning. You couldn’t have any proper discourse on there, and even I with my generally more left leaning views recognized that.

That’s simply false. Tankies are a nuisance, but outside of social media they basically don’t exist, and leftist activist groups are shunning them quickly, because they’re impossible to work with.

Leftist activists nearly universally reject violence against people, meanwhile there’s hordes of fascists hoarding guns, they’re (in) the police, they’re in the military, they’re actively threatening people, trying to overturn governments, and more.

If you think these things are even remotely comparable it shows you have no idea what you’re talking about.
