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.
frankly I’m a little concerned by it. I want my opinions to be valued if I’m going to share them. frankly I already don’t feel welcome and this is literally day two and not even a political /m/.
Good. If the concept of not tolerating hate speech bothers you, get out.
I don’t tolerate hate speech, on either side of the fence.
God I am so curious as to what you consider hate speech “on the other side of the fence”.
Yeah, me too.
We won’t get any examples, though. At least not any examples of things real, relevant people actually said. The best they’ll do is drop a dumptruck’s worth of strawmen before flouncing off in a huff.
Yeah it’s /r/Politics levels of “if you don’t agree with you YOU’RE HITLER!!!1!”
