To me it feels like a matured Reddit. (At least most of the time πŸ™ƒ)

Feels like an echo chamber filled with angry political activists that seem more interested in hating and breaking things rather than discussing solutions. Can't say I like it here but for some reason I keep coming back. I probably block on average 3 to 7 people a day but doesn't seem to make much of a difference. Makes me further lose my hope in humanity if I'm completely honest.

yeah we have so many useless instance that already exist and thriving in reddit so why bring it here? their subreddit already as sound proof as hell in reddit as echo chamber and they still come here to spread their annoying voice again, sigh( im tired of the post of hating rich people over and over) like come on man I know you hate rich people already

Or landlords or cars or windows or...

Well that's some thorny insight.

It's true tho. Calling for violence or people's death is normal here, no nuance in the discussion, it feels like very few people are there to discuss, rather than validate their own, cemented opinions.

I agree, the amount of "This person needs to die" is crazy here.

There is even less room for a nuanced discussion of anything.

Define "here". The acceptance for that sort of thing can vary wildly between communities and, IMHO more significantly, instances.

If you see such posts, stop and see which instance they're posted from. You might see some patterns.

Well, it wasn't hexbear or the other one if you are asking about that. It was one on the Blahaj zone, which supposedly is a chill instance, and yet plenty of hate.
