Tankies and fascists have more in common with each other, and feudalists, than they do with workers/socialists. I’m convinced the horseshoe theory is just narcissism presenting across the political spectrum.
Only a fucking narcissist could believe authoritarianism, control, and subjugation are desirable. That’s why its delusions of grandeur and megalomania all the way down.
Authoritarians gonna auth. Why particular holy book they wave around, the Bible, das Kapital, mein Kampf or whatever they have in North Korea is merely incidental.
Just got majorly downvoted on works for asking why free speech is a bad thing and the only response was a snarky comment saying I’m from 300 years ago.
I’m about to delete my account after being on here for a year and a half because most popular Lemmy instances are just turning into the worst parts of twitter exiles.
Don’t be childish, you must know that going against the circlejerk/hivemind is a guaranteed downvote brigade on any social media site. But depending on the thread/community/server/phase of the moon, the hivemind can believe completely contradictory things.
You just have to read the room, and if you’re going against the general mood in the thread, you have to put in extra effort to get your point across. And sometimes you just wear the downvotes like a badge of honor, because it means you’re not a sheep.
That was my experience in topical sections of reddit. Often the first few comments determined how the entire post would go, and you could get completely different results saying the same thing on different days. Same with replies I guess.
I guess because Lemmy is getting so many more active users after twitter and Reddit fallouts that some of the qualities that it used to have regarding are being drown out.

I’d say the equivalent in Nork is probably On the Juche Idea

Different time of day and week in smaller communities can contribute as well to pretty big shifts in response.

It’s not though. Lemmy active userbase hasn’t grown at all in over a year. We need all the users we can get.
