Honestly I don't see all this hade and intolerance here on lemmy.world and i've been around since last year. Can you give me some context?

Actual context because the other comment (e: the prettybunnys one) is clearly showing some bias:

[email protected] is constantly in turmoil against itself regarding some US electoral stuff. About once per thread (no joke) an argument gets to a point where one person accuses the other of not being human because they just can't fathom how different their positions are. This also spreads to other communities but I generally find !politicalmemes to be the primary source. (e: This also is common on .ml communities unless I am mistaken. I just am not exposed to that much since my instance does not federate with .ml.)

(Disclaimer: while funny, don't do this kind of attack without real evidence; it's generally frowned on by mods as uncivil.)

Really? That is kind of pleasing to hear to be honest. I only ever encountered echochamber comments any of the times I went on any political thread here, one sided anchoring and confirmation bias, so I stopped. I'm kind of happy to hear that there are multiple perspectives being discussed at all. Neat.
