Lemmy users lack nuace and it stops actual discussion.
I seriously cannot have any degree of nuanced conversation here.
Like I get it, we all know capitalism is bad, but it feels like every time I or anyone go towards discussing the steps that need to be taken to address current looming problems in the short term, someone has to jump in and shut it down with "capitalism bad >:[ " and tear down any idea presented because its not complete and total destruction of the current economic model.
The result just feels like an echo chamber where no actual solutions get presented other than someone posting whole ass dissertations on their 33-step (where 30/33 steps are about as vague as "we'll just handle it") plan to fully convert the world to an anarchist commune.
Edit: I still vastly prefer Lemmy and the fediverse and a whole, my complaint here is that many of you are TOO INTENSE. You blow up small scale discussion.
You're viewing a single thread.
Just ask them to point to a successful communist country.
Last I heard Vietnam was one and doing good, but that’s it.
That just adds to empty dialog, it doesn't genuinely cultivate real discussion. So, I don't see the point. I've seen this question asked time and again and never has it led to anything productive just more zingers back and forth. In fact I've seen the question posed in response to many comments that simply point out flaws in our current system rather than engaging on anything.
Perhaps because there are so many trolls we want to quickly establish which broad camp the other belongs to so we can choose whether to invest any significant additional time in responding.
