Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

Look at here and the people who complain about it being too hard to figure out are the ones complaining about "I can't use muh slurs, this is awful."

"The left of today is very much in favour of censorship to avoid “harm.” This makes those of us in the middle very wary of signing up to any partisan media." /u/decidedlysticky23

/u/misshapensteed claims he isn't far right, but explictly only posts on PoliticalCompassMemes and TheLeftCantMeme and KotakuInAction.

If they are too stupid to figure out we know they're lying, they're too stupid to figure out lemmy.

I'm not sure what you're getting at. Isn't the point of the post is that it is a good thing that people who are intolerant of perspectives that challenge their own are avoiding Lemmy.

In general I tend to avoid people who are incapable of entertaining other viewpoints. They tend to stubbornly defend their frail counterpoints and then resort to childish antics when people don't agree with them.

They would rather be wrong than accept that they are wrong.

I don't think echo chambers are good for anybody. It's the echo chambers that created many of these people.

Nah, it's a general tolerance for the intolerant. Places like r/PCM and r/conservative and reddit as a whole are far too tolerant of bigots. It should come as no surprise that they have been invaded by fascists. If you value and enjoy tolerance, the best thing you can do to preserve it is to not tolerate intolerance.
