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.
I made a block-button happy trip thru the moderation logs of the larger magazines, got all the trolls & fascists in one fell swoop.
Low key using this thread to do that. Lots of closet fascists being shitty in here, but hey, the nice thing about them is they make themselves easy to spot!
