I naively walked into Lemmy thinking it might be a friendlier respite from the echo chamber that is Reddit. I was wrong. From everything I've seen, it's just a more concentrated pit, where all people want to hear are their opinions repeated, plugging their senses from anything contrary.
I also wanted/hoped this would be a place where people wouldn't get downvoted and cast away just for stating different opinions. Nope. It's the same old emphasized emotional outrage, where you can't even offer a different take without a virtual lynching.
I don't want to see that from the left or right. Civility would be nice for a change...
Edit: I see the downvotes are starting. I guess I can soon expect to be attacked by weak expletive rage because my colors don't match the hive.

If that's the case, I'm going to all 3. First the Roman circus to the left. Next, Mardi Gras in Rio de Janeiro. Then one of those massive middle Eastern malls like the one in Dubai or Iran.

There've been a few occasions where I disagreed with my own post. I couldn't just let myself get away with bs comments, so I had to downvote to teach myself a lesson.
Is that why she's also wearing a long sleeve shirt and turtle neck?
